Prescribed

Went to the doctor, just the other day
Said "Doctor, Doctor, why am I feeling this way?"
He said "Son, I'm gonna cure your ills"
And handed me a script for some little yellow pills
And he said, "Take these, as prescribed"

So I went down, to the local pharmacy
Said Mrs. Druggist can you please help me
She handed me a bottle, put a label on it too
And in bold black letters it told me what to done
It told me what to do
It said, "Take these as prescribed"

When I got home, still feelin' like a wreck
Another label said "Alcohol may intensify the effect"
I took a handful, washed down with some booze
Wasn't long before I couldn't move
And I said, "To hell with take these as prescribed"

When I woke up, Doc was starin' in my face
Nurses and medics runnin' all over the place
Looks like I landed in emergency
Because of a simple little problem that I failed to heed
And it was "Take these as prescribed"
Yeah, take me home
Get me outa here
My mouth's also dry
My head hurts
Looks like I better learn how to take 'em
As prescribed
