Your doc is your srug he's got your medication
He gets thorugh to you better when you're under sedation
Something from your past that he won't let relax
You wish that you're dead but he makes the time last
So you sit in the day room and watch a TV
You're never alone, under close scrutiny
Don't cause any problems, you'll end up on your back
Chock full of thorazine and trapped like a rat
