Lyric

When I was seven years old, I saw a dead man in the road

Outside the liquor store, a few blocks from my school

Well, he was cold, and he was warm, he looked the damn same as before

Except for something in the eyes and a bit of drool

Well, people die every day, I wouldn't have it any other way

I just think they should feel good while they are alive

I went to school, I got good grades, I don't know what you want me to say

But tell me faster 'cause we're running out of time

I wanted to help people

I thought that I could save the sick

And if it's all the same to you

There's one more thing I've gotta do

Because with God as my witness

You corporate fucking prick

I did not become a doctor just to

Suck the devil's dick

I made it through all four years and then almost a decade more

I asked the right questions, I never even really got bored

They hired me in my hometown, then again when I moved away

People liked me back then, what can I say?

Well, I can say it was the government of the companies

Bureaucracy, the congressmen, the lobbyists, and lies

It trickled into both my ears, it got louder over the years

Until all that I could hear were fucking flies

People die every day, I wouldn't have it any other way

I just think they should feel okay while they're alive

How could they every feel okay when things are more and more this way?

Sometimes it's like they'd rather die

But I fucking helped people

I tried my best to save the sick

And if it's all the same to you

There's one more thing I've gotta do

Because with God as my witness

You corporate fucking prick

I did not become a doctor for this

I wanted to help people

I did my best to save the sick

With God as my witness

I did not make it through med' school for this

I fucking helped people

I did my best to save the sick

With God as my witness

I won't suck the Devil's dick

I wanted to help people

I did my best to save the sick

With God as my witness

I did not make it through med school for this

I wanted to help people

I did my best

- It's already the end -
