Pill Popping People
Rewrite of REM's Shiny, Happy People
Pill popping people
Stay far from me
Don't wanna fall in with your addict crowd
Crazy people people
Slimy crawling all around
You'll never get me
Get me
Rotting away on the bad side of town
Pill popping
Pill popping
Burying your futures
6 feet deep underground
Someday soon
You just may be forever
Where only funeral flowers grow
Traded away your lives
For some temporary high gold
Where did it all go wrong?
When did you lose your sunshine?
Chorus
Pill popping people
Holding no joy
In your empty hands
Pill popping people
Holding nothing
In your empty hands
Pill popping people
Everywhere
All over
Dying
Everyone around them
Used by them
Tortured by slowly losing them
Slipping outta loving hands
Your good advice
They'll never take it
Take it
There's no time to save them
Only time enough to cry
Popping popping
Don't it just break your heart
For them they the only tomorrow is
One of endless crimes
High on temporary gold
When and where?
Did they lose their sunshine?
Chorus
2014 Ramona Thompson
