Lyrics Lilly 110-140 - Dave's True Story

Lilly 110-140

I was standing still
By the window sill
I was thinking about my honey
I’d been thrown for a loop
When he’d flown the coop
With my best friend, my car and my money
They were found one day
In a heap of clay
A tragic and sad, sad story
I stayed home and cried
Till the doctor arrived
With his Lilly One-Ten-One-Forty™
Woe was me
I was wallowing in misery
Gone astray
Till that little pill saved the day
One day side by side
Dr. Weiss and I
Were working on my depression
When my wayward past
Returned home at last
And burst in on our session
What an awful scen
When the coroner cam
To collect the good doctor’s body
Took him several trips
As I sealed my lips
With some Lilly One-Ten-One-Forty™
Lilly One-Ten-One-Forty™
Woe was me
I was wallowing in misery
Glory be
When that little pill set me free
Sometimes I dream of an island grove
Or drifting alone on the bay
Sometimes I lie on a sunlight cove
As my sorrows melt away
Now the trial was short
For my day in court
And I stood to hear the sentence
But the judge was kind
And he judged my mind
To be both non compis and non mentis
So he closed the book
Let me off the hook
With a stern and judicious warning
Then the bailiff came by
With a ten-year supply
Of Lilly One-Ten-One-Forty™
Lilly One-Ten-One-Forty™
Sometimes I dream of an island breeze
Blowing the face of the sand
Sometimes I’m watching the island trees
As the tension leaves my hand
So whether young or old
If I may be bold
You can learn something from my story
When you need a lift
You just take the fifth
With some Lilly One-Ten-One-Forty™
Woe was me
I was heading straight for infamy
Glory be
When that little pill set me free
