lyrics

CLINICAL TRIALS
she said three words and quaffed a potion
threw the bottle into the ocean
got her charms from a drugstore lotion
from the chemical baths and the clinical trials

her painted up cheeks looked like a painting
and ruby red lips like a dollhouse ceiling
and all of that just to get a feeling
from the chemical baths and the clinical trials

he sells them oils to match the fashion
so they’ll feel ugly without a mask on
and make good money selling all the potions
from the chemical baths

bad people live while good ones die
sticking drugged up needles in a rabbit’s eye
from the chemical baths and the clinical trials
from the chemical baths and the clinical trials
