Lyrics
Can you believe it, you're still alive?
Never thought you'd see twenty-five
Getting older wasn't in your plan
Should you celebrate
Or become numb again?
No time like depressant
All the docs know, and all the kids say
No time like depressant
Pack a little brown bottle and you do it again
No time for the dreamer
Never thought you were future-bound
No time for the restless
Never catch you running anywhere
Can you believe it, you got that new car?
Lots of cash, nowhere to spend it
Doesn't freedom imprison you now
Should you celebrate
Or just end it?
No time like depressant
All the docs know, and all the kids say
No time like depressant
Pack a little brown bottle and you do it again
No time like depressant
Getting smaller than a fetus finger
No time like depressant
Slow down.....you don't need it
Places everyone, the place is turning again
You can carve it on my headstone, baby
If you'd only walk through my door
No time for depression
Never thought you would end up here
No time for the past now
Never catch you looking but forward
Can you believe it is never ending?
Getting older and feeling stronger
Doesn't money mean nothing...
Doesn't money mean nothing
And yet everything?
No time like depressant
All the docs know, and all the kids say
No time like depressant
Pack a little brown bottle and you do it again
No time like depressant
Getting smaller than a sub-atomic stitch
No time like depressant
Slow down.....you don't need it.....
Do you need it?
