Pills

Are you still taking them pills?

Are they still giving you thrills?

Does your coat still sound like a maraca when you're walking up and down, around the Tennessee hills?

The prescription that you're taking to the pharmacist is written on a stack of twenty dollar bills

Are you still taking them pills?I remember back when we used to take 'em

And we'd feel them start to kickin' in

At first we'd feel a tingle, then we'd feel a prickle, like there's something crawling on my skin

I think they almost made us feel a little happy

I think they nearly made us feel like we belong

They said it's bringing on something for an entire day

And we'd talk about it all night long

Are you still taking them pills?

Are they still giving you thrills?

Do you still feel like you're getting prodded by a hundred thousand nasty little porcupine quills?

You're mind is like a cyclone needing satisfaction

But it empties out as quick as it fills

Are you still taking them pills?You know it's strange the way time can change a person

Just yesterday it seems like we were getting high

Now I've been clean for years but to be completely honest

I think about it all the timeBut wait, I think you don't remember how you know me

I got to say that you don't seem the same

You oughta hang it up cause by the look that's on your face, I think you'll wonder how I even know your name

Are you still taking them pills?

Are they still giving you thrills?

Outside there's a bin man staring at you, can't you see I'm leaning on your window sill?

I'm afraid we might read it in the paper that you're pushing up the daisies and the daffodils

Are you still taking them pills?

Are you still taking them pills?
