"Shrinks and Balances" (Old)

Posted: Tue Oct 25, 2005 1:24 am

I'm about to go a little crazy with some of my older songs, because right now it's hard to write the new ideas I've been coming up with, due to health issues (not serious, if you haven't already heard).

So this first piece was written sometime around late May, or early June of 2004. This was a time when I was trying to get off of some antidepressants that seemed to be hurting more than helping. I don't like doctors too much, mainly psychological professionals, because they don't seem to care about the suffering patient as much as the paying client that the person is. It's just my opinion, but I wrote this song about that view, and it's called "Shrinks and Balances".

"Shrinks and Balances"

Evidence shows, he was murdered by the shrink.
She slid him across, the medication ice-rink.
-Accidental, sure, that's what they'd like to think,
but she knew it all along; wrote prescriptions with her ink.

(Chorus):
I'm telling you, this is wrong...
Shrinks and balances, cause more imbalances. (yeah...)
Destruction lies...
in artificial life.

Everyone knows, this weakened man was on the brink,
but she gave him the pills, and said it was the missing link.
-Accidental, sure, that's what they would believe,
but she knew it all along, that he was headed for the plank.

(Chorus)

(Moderately long Interlude, envisioned for Bridge)

(Double Chorus)

Any doctors who may possibly be members of the UBW should know, I don't hate all doctors. Some do actually seem to care. It's just that many really do only seem to care about the paycheck. -Hope anyone who read this one enjoyed it. Later!

Thanks for the comment, deltarain (-I think you mentioned your name before, but sometimes I have trouble with names. If so, sorry).

Thanks for your reply too, Erick!

I'm glad that both of you found some enjoyment in this. Later!

Thanks much.

Ironically, I don't dislike doctors as much now. I just had some surgery done, and the doc' who performed the operation did a great job. Of course' I still don't like "head-doctors," but oh well. Later!
