The Meds Are Working As Intended

I wrote this before I had a few incredibly not-chill paranoid days this week so pat me on the back for actually messaging my psychiatrist and lowering the medication that was dragging me slowly towards mania. Shout out Britt-Britt (fake name) you da best
Lyrics
The meds are working as intended And it’s the end of the world I’m like the cartoon dog smiling While everything burns
The meds are working as intended And I feel just fine Don’t know if we’ll be alive next year It’ll be a good time
The secret to happiness Is a really good psychiatrist Shout out Britt-Britt— you da best Cocktail’s got me on the mend Hopefully won’t have a manic episode Cuz in our last appointment I did not disclose That I’m not really eating or sleeping
The meds are working as intended My productivity’s up I’m posting gifs in the Teams chat at work Of giant coffee cups
And if this is what gets me through The combination civil war revolu’ Electric technofascist coup boogaloo There’s worse things I could do.. doo doo doo dooo
The secret to happiness Is a really-eally good psychiatrist Shout out Britt-Britt— you da best Cocktail’s got me on the mend And I’m not gonna make any major life Decisions I’m just gonna vibe And remember I’m not God
The meds are working as intended And I’m pretty chill I hope my friends don’t think I’ve become A massive pill
Cuz if this is what gets me through The combination civil war revolu’ Electric technofascist coup boogaloo It’s what I gotta do doo doo doo doo YEAH!!
The secret to happiness Would be a robust social safety net What if we just lived our lives Not fucking terrified Of being unhoused and hate-crimed hey At least now I don’t wanna die Shout-out Britt-Britt— you da best Cocktail’s got me on the mend And I’m not gonna make any major life Decisions I’m just gonna vibe And remember I’m not God And remember eating and sleeping And remember when I hate myself there’s worse things I could be And I’m just one flawed but lovable and human individual
And I’m not God
Agree with the secret to happiness lol. This is such a great song. 😊 Thanks so much for sharing it!
