The Doctor
Bottles of tonic hide poison in almost plain sight
Yet, two arms around me help my heart to beat through the night
The day he arrived, the women all opened their doors
He showed them his bearings and charmed them with miracle cures
Saying, "I am the doctor
I am the one who will serve as your saviour
Unlike those other men who leave
Once they realise you're not put together
But I am the doctor, I'll love you forever"
Have you tasted your own medicine?
Your own medicine? Ooh
Poison can spread lip to lip and still taste like a kiss
A trick of the tongue and a lie can become righteousness
When medicine faltered, the doctor, he always would claim
He wasn't the one who's at fault, it's the patient's to blame
He'd say, "I am the doctor
I am the only man who can stand your behaviour
All of those other men would leave
Once they've realised you're not put together
But I am the doctor, you'll need me forever"
Have you tasted your own medicine?
Your own medicine? Ooh
Have you tasted your own poison?
Your own poison? Ooh
Have a taste of your own poison, ooh
Well, seasons change and poison blooms
Yet the rain, it washes you away
And I am making room
For flower beds with fences too this time
You said you were the doctor
Yet, I'm so much smarter
Than you
Have a taste of your own medicine
Your own medicine, ooh
Yet, two arms around me help my heart to beat through the night
The day he arrived, the women all opened their doors
He showed them his bearings and charmed them with miracle cures
Saying, "I am the doctor
I am the one who will serve as your saviour
Unlike those other men who leave
Once they realise you're not put together
But I am the doctor, I'll love you forever"
Have you tasted your own medicine?
Your own medicine? Ooh
Poison can spread lip to lip and still taste like a kiss
A trick of the tongue and a lie can become righteousness
When medicine faltered, the doctor, he always would claim
He wasn't the one who's at fault, it's the patient's to blame
He'd say, "I am the doctor
I am the only man who can stand your behaviour
All of those other men would leave
Once they've realised you're not put together
But I am the doctor, you'll need me forever"
Have you tasted your own medicine?
Your own medicine? Ooh
Have you tasted your own poison?
Your own poison? Ooh
Have a taste of your own poison, ooh
Well, seasons change and poison blooms
Yet the rain, it washes you away
And I am making room
For flower beds with fences too this time
You said you were the doctor
Yet, I'm so much smarter
Than you
Have a taste of your own medicine
Your own medicine, ooh
