American Healthcare Glitzy

penelope scott

When I was 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 okay while they are alive
I went to school, I got good grades
I don't know what you want me to say
But 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 gotta 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 through all four years
And then almost a decade more
I asked the right questions
I 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 congressmen, the lobbyists and lies
It trickled into both my ears
It got louder over the years
Until all that I could hear were 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

But 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 gotta do
'Cause with God as my witness
You corporate piece of shit
I did not become a doctor just to suck the devil's dick
