Love and Penicillin
First performed 1/13/96

Love and penicillin, they're the miracle drugs
But it's more than germs you're killing when you give that little shrug
And say don't know and you don't care
And I wonder how you got there

Love and penicillin they're such beautiful things
But you might take too much and then your ears will start ringing
That you're out there, and you're in deep
And it's got you more than skin deep

Well, I've read in all the books that even Vincent had his Theo
But I'm standing here alone and wondering where's that cure for me, oh

Love and penicillin some for me, some for you
Keep on choking it down until the fever is through
And it's growing, and it's spreading
And the end is what I'm dreading

Love and penicillin they both come in a shot
And they tend to be prescribed for almost anything that you've got

Well, I've read in all the books that even Vincent had his Theo
But I'm standing here alone and wondering where's that cure for me, oh
