THE WOMBATS
"Anti-D"

[Chorus:]
Please allow me
To be your anti-depressant
I, too, am prescribed as freely
As any decongestants

We kick back and let the pills do the talking
People hear a distinct rattle when we're walking
Then there's the extra two stone, that's our only guarantee
Our vivid dreams are just like big production movies
They get entangled well within our daily routines
So please rethink, or use my trademark strategy

[Chorus:]
And please allow me
To be your anti-depressant
I, too, am prescribed as freely
As any decongestants

[Refrain:]
Ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah

It's hard to smile when you're as flattened as a panc-c-cake
The only tears come from our heads when we concentrate
Perhaps I'm being unjust, or perhaps you agree?
Still, I've thrown away my citalopram
I needed more than what was in those forty milligrams
So cast away with the doctor's plans

[Chorus:]
And please allow me
To be your anti-depressant
I, too, am prescribed as freely
As any decongestants

[Refrain:]
Ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah (Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
Ah-ah, ah-ah (Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah (Ah-ah, ah-ah)
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

[Outro:]
Still, I've thrown away my citalopram
Although I felt as grim as the Reaper Man
So cast away with the doctor's plans like me
