Lyrics:
Rx Side Fx
(Verse 1)
I saw an ad on my TV last night
about a pill called Gityerassright
it had a lot of warnings I guess they don't last
I mostly didn't hear cuz they talk too fast
(Verse 2)
So I went to my doc to prescribe me some
he said read the label son don't be dumb
it turns out the pills were ten bucks apiece
with a label longer than War & Peace
(PC)
I started to read but it was no use
it was the very worst kind of adult abuse
(verse 3)
so I took 2 pills I think the label said one
that's when I decided just to go have fun
I blew off readin' now I know it was wrong
you'll see what I mean by the end of this song
(Chorus)
Rx Side FX, a rodeo clown show
May cause sprouting wings and a beak that glows
Rx Side FX, what the heck's next?
could cause an urge to build a big nest
May make you yodel or turn your poo blue
consult your doctor if you grow udders and moo
Rx Side Fx read all the long label
no cause for concern 'cuz their rarely fatal
(verse 4)
Woke up the next morning, my head was spinnin'
My left eye was twitchin I couldn't stop grinnin'
My elbows were itchin my toes were all green,
my skin had developed a strange purple sheen.
(PC)
I called up my doc, said, “What’s goin' on?”
He said, “Son, it’s workin’—don’t be a moron
(Chorus)
Rx Side FX, a rodeo clown show,
May cause sprouting wings and a beak that glows
Rx Side FX, what the heck's next?
could cause an urge to build a big nest
May make you yodel or turn your poo blue
consult your doctor if you grow udders and moo
Rx Side Fx read all the long label
no cause for concern 'cuz their rarely fatal
(bridge)
Side effects include sneezin', wheezin', laughin', cryin',
Glowin’ in the dark spontaneous flyin'!
May cause burps, smirks, twerks, or spasm
bark on all fours with enthusiasm
Do I hear one pill, two pills, three pills, four?
Can I get a prescription? What’s it even for?!
(chorus)
(verse 5)
So now I’m a warning, a walking PSA,
A cautionary tale believe what I say
If you see an ad for Gityerassright,
Run far away, don’t give in to the hype.
But if you’re curious, well now that’s your call,
Just know you might moo in a deep sexy drawl
