FOGHAT
"Self-Medicated"
(Bryan Bassett / Roger Earl / Charlie Huhn / Tony Stevens)

Well I'm chemically imbalanced and that's for sure
Leave it to me and I'll find a cure
Well my friends all tell me I look such a fright
But I'll get the combination right
People say that it's self-abuse
I put my script to such good use

'Cause I'm self medicated, self-medicated
Self-medicated like I knew I should
Self medicated, self-medicated
Self-medicated & I do it good...Alright

Well the doc says I'm chemically out of wack
Hey I know that, gimme my money back
And the doc says ya know that I'll be alright
So I medicate myself day and night
I'm all wired up, runnin' round the floor
I have to calm down and do it some more

'Cause I'm self medicated, self-medicated
Self-medicated like I knew I should
Self medicated, self-medicated
Self-medicated & I do it good...Alright
C'mon boys

One beer short of a six pack - A three wheel cadillac
A sandwich short of a picnic - A sure fire heart attack
One wave short of a shipwreck - One grape short of a bunch
One song short of a sound check - So what If I'm out to lunch

[Instrumental]

Well I'm self medicated for so damn long
Well it ain't my fault that I got it all wrong
My friends all tell me I look such a fright
But I say I'll get the combination right
So consecrated, don't make a mistake
It's not easy being perfect, so give me a break

'Cause I'm self medicated, self-medicated
Self-medicated like I knew I should
Self medicated, so dedicated
Self-medicated & I do it good...Alright...
Hahaha whoa

I think you've had enough - I want more than enough!
Where are we? Oh yeah
Self medicated 'cause it feels so good

Self medicated like I knew I could
Self medicated never looking back
Self medicated like a heart attack...Alright

[Instrumental]
