Pig In a Poke

Someone tell me something give it me a direction please I’ll buy it on the internet if there’s any free release Shiny,shiny glitter me tell me something please tell me what must I be necessity this silence is blinding me and reprint me the receipt Send me fusion flicker screen and all those other more important things my life can be wrapped in cellophane if delivery is certain make it within the next couple of days And if there is a quick fix to stop me from from ever getting ill don’t worry I will take it I’ll swallow down that quiet little pill never read the label so long as my meds keep me, keep me stable Please drag me further from this crazy world kicking a scream with all the hate I’ve heard tell me something, anything better I only want to feel, just a little bit healthier send me a balm please prescribe me something which will keep me calm don’t worry I’ll swallow any caustic pill so long as it stops me from ever getting ill So someone tell me something please some miracle from the factories something predisposed to zombie-hood something I would know if I could something anything to stop this nagging doubt
