Trickle Down Effect
Lyrics
Drip, drip, drip
It slowly feeds you
Opiates and saline
Drip, drip, drip
You're numb but aware
Nurse Ratched but less benign
Tap, tap, tap
So, can you feel it
Leeching off your emotions
Scratch, scratch, scratch
The blood flows freely
As you drink their potions
Calm and senseless
Drowsy, sedated
Willing and able
Downtrodden and hated
The trickle down effect
Leaves you breathless
The morphine they inject
Leaves you restless
Drip, drip, drip
It slowly feeds you
Opiates and saline
Drip, drip, drip
You're numb but aware
Nurse Ratched but less benign
Tap, tap, tap
So, can you feel it
Leeching off your emotions
Scratch, scratch, scratch
The blood flows freely
As you drink their potions
Calm and senseless
Drowsy, sedated
Willing and able
Downtrodden and hated
The trickle down effect
Leaves you breathless
The morphine they inject
Leaves you restless
Press the button for help
Someone will be with you
You have a number
In the queue
Drip, drip, drip
It slowly feeds you
Opiates and saline
Drip, drip, drip
You're numb but aware
Nurse Ratched but less benign
Tap, tap, tap
So, can you feel it
Leeching off your emotions
Scratch, scratch, scratch
The blood flows freely
As you drink their potions
Calm and senseless
Drowsy, sedated
Willing and able
Downtrodden and hated
The trickle down effect
Leaves you breathless
The morphine they inject
Leaves you restless
Drip, drip, drip
It slowly feeds you
Opiates and saline
Drip, drip, drip
You're numb but aware
Nurse Ratched but less benign
Tap, tap, tap
So, can you feel it
Leeching off your emotions
Scratch, scratch, scratch
The blood flows freely
As you drink their potions
Calm and senseless
Drowsy, sedated
Willing and able
Downtrodden and hated
The trickle down effect
Leaves you breathless
The morphine they inject
Leaves you restless
Press the button for help
Someone will be with you
You have a number
In the queue
