Penelope Scott - American Healthcare lyrics
[Penelope Scott - American Healthcare lyrics]
When I seven years old
I saw a dead man in the road
Outside the liquor store a few
Blocks from my school
Well he was cold and he was warm
He looked the damn same as before
Except for something in the eyes
And a bit of drool
Well, people die every day
I wouldn't have it any other way
I just think they should feel
Good while they are alive
I went to school I got good grades
I don't know you want me to say
Tell me faster 'cause you're
Running out of time
I wanted to help people
I thought that I could save the sick
And if it's all the same to you
There's one more thing I got to do
Because with god as my witness
You corporate fucking prick
I did not become a doctor just
To suck the devil's dick
I made it though all four years
And then almost a decade more
I asked the right questions
And never even really got bored
They hired me in my hometown
And then again when I moved away
People liked me back then what can I say?
It was the government
The companies, bureaucracy
The lobbyists, the congressmen, and lies
They trickled into both my ears
And got louder over the years
Until all that I could hear was fucking flies
Well, people die every day
I wouldn't have it any other way
I just think they should feel
Okay while they're alive
How could they ever feel okay
When things are more and more this way?
Sometimes it's like they'd rather die
I fucking helped people
I thought that I could do the trick
And if it's all the same to you
There's one more thing I got to do
Because with god as my witness
You corporate piece of shit
I did not become a doctor just
To suck the devil's dick
I saw a dead man in the road
Outside the liquor store a few
Blocks from my school
Well he was cold and he was warm
He looked the damn same as before
Except for something in the eyes
And a bit of drool
Well, people die every day
I wouldn't have it any other way
I just think they should feel
Good while they are alive
I went to school I got good grades
I don't know you want me to say
Tell me faster 'cause you're
Running out of time
I wanted to help people
I thought that I could save the sick
And if it's all the same to you
There's one more thing I got to do
Because with god as my witness
You corporate fucking prick
I did not become a doctor just
To suck the devil's dick
I made it though all four years
And then almost a decade more
I asked the right questions
And never even really got bored
They hired me in my hometown
And then again when I moved away
People liked me back then what can I say?

The lobbyists, the congressmen, and lies
They trickled into both my ears
And got louder over the years
Until all that I could hear was fucking flies
