Medication |
| It just so happens I have many concerns |
| My brother’s down the road and my lover in town |
| They both need affection |
| And some kind of love |
| Well I’m the one who gives it at any given time |
| From two in the morning to six |
| Call me up and cry |
| My lover keeps it secret that we meet under covers |
| When asked by her man if we two are lovers |
| She says, «I hardly know him |
| Besides, he’s not my type.» |
| Her man’s a policeman with a keen sense of trouble |
| He’s known to spot danger |
| And all kinds of liars |
| Brother called this morning in a terrible panic |
| Spies in the closet, bugs in the attic |
| He screams bloody murder saying |
| «We're all gonna die» |
| And death is upon me, I know 'cause he showed me |
| Pictures of graveyards and us underneath |
| I’m losing my hearing from my brother screaming |
| «They're coming to get me and |
| Someone call the police.» |
| Two in the morning, the phone disconnected |
| Her man knows I’m calling, it’s what I expected |
| A note on my backdoor saying, «Baby, not tonight.» |
| So I sit with my brother who is nursing a cut wrist |
| He’s mumbling «Forgive me.» |
| And «Don't let them take me away.» |
| I can be a good boy and stay out of trouble |
| «Jackie, I love you and |
| Don’t let them take your brother» |
| Strapped to a table, go in electrodes |
| «Jackie, come save me, the doctors will kill me.» |
| «No, they’re here to help you |
| Straighten out your mind.» |
| The TV is blaring with some preacher saying that |
| God is among us and he hears our cries |
| Lord, do me a favor |
| It’s wrong but I ask you |
| Take my brother’s life |
| 'Cause he’s sick of the suffering |
| The pills he’s inhaling |
| The cross he is bearing |
| That is his trouble mind |
