"Medicine"
(Teddy Borowiecki / Boo Hewerdine / Eddi Reader)

Did you fall out of the family tree
Here's a kiss to mend your knee

Everybody needs some kind of medicine sometimes

How long did you think it would last with your
Sleeping pills and laughing gas?

Everybody needs some kind of medicine sometimes

Throwing our hats at the moon in George's Square
Was that ever us?
Climbing walls, giving names to the stars
Was that ever us?

But if you come home with me I'll
Slap a little something in your tea

Everybody needs some kind of medicine sometimes

Throwing our hats at the moon in George's Square?
Was that ever us?
Climbing walls, giving names to the stars
Was that ever us?

You've been hanging out in casualty
For shooting too much mercury

Everybody needs some kind of medicine sometimes

Oh, and if you come home with me I'll
Score for you if you score for me

Everybody needs some kind of medicine sometimes
