Little White Pills
Sittin at home, all by yourself
Bottles lined up on the shelf.
Little white pills—take the pain away;
You'll never have to face another day.
Sittin at home, about three-quarter's cut
Family and friends think you're a nut.
Little white pills—take the pain away;
You'll never have to face another day.
Sittin at home, your life's a mess:
Must've screwed up somewhere, you guess.
Little white pills—take the pain away;
You'll never have to face another day.
Take the bottles down, one by one,
Pop the pills till they're all gone.
Little white pills take the pain away;
Never again to see light of day.
