C5
Tell 'em say no to drugs, substances make you dumb
D5                            A5
Then you say, give 'em some, are you the victim
C5
Of this experience, child experiment
D5                      A5
Teacher's predicament, you're in the system
    C5                     G5             D5
And if you don't walk the line, you can walk the plank
A5
  Your older brother
C5                     G5                 D5
Wants to control your mind, you're more useful blank


             E5   E5 D5 E5                   D5      D5 C5 D5
Medicate the kids           feathers turn to quills
                 A5
Pump 'em full of training fluids, powders and pills
        B5
There's nothing you can't flush out
    
And nothing you can't kill


C5         G5        D5        A5
Why don't you just back off of us
C5      G5     D5      A5
Before we go crazy
          C5         G5       D5          A5
I'm gonna tell you, no way, this ain't fair play
C5          G5   D5        A5
Just don't medicate me


C5                          G5
Tell 'em , say no to drugs, substances make you dumb
D5                       A5
Unless you get 'em from someone who loves you
C5                           G5
One who knows best for you, paid for those tests for you
D5                            A5
Knows how to get you through, when it's above you
C5                    G5               D5
And you can't get on top, cause it's high to climb,
A5
   You hear them saying
C5                      G5          D5
Don't make me call the cops every other time

Ponte:
              C5                          G5
And there's a long line flowing from prescription aisles
              D5                     A5
Filed through legal means so we can alter the child
           C5                    G5
For his protection tie him to extension cords
            D5
This is the age of discipline


D5         A5        E5        B5
Why don't you just back off of us
D5      A5     E5      B5
Before we go crazy
D5         A5        E5        B5
Why don't you just back off of us
D5      A5     E5      B5
Before we go crazy
D5         A5        E5        B5
Why don't you just back off of us
D5      A5     E5      B5
Before we go crazy
D5         A5        E5        B5
Why don't you just back off of us
D5      A5     E5
Before we go crazy
