Antidepressant
Navigating Life's Rollercoaster: A Musical Prescription by Lloyd Cole
Lyrics
I'm serving 12 to 15, working the coffee machine
Engaged in a job, possibly serving 12 to 15 people and operating a coffee machine.
I've got a license to fly underneath the radar
Expressing the ability to operate discreetly or unnoticed.
She's about 50 feet north, 'As Seen On TV' store
Describing the location of a woman near an 'As Seen On TV' store.
I know she's gonna tune me in sooner or later
Anticipating that the woman will notice or pay attention to the speaker eventually.
With my medication, I will be fine
Repetition emphasizing reliance on medication for well-being.
With my medication, I will be fine
-With my medication, I will be, I will be fine
-I said, ?I'm trying to write my novel?
Conversation about writing a novel, shared lack of progress, and a common interest in 'No Depression.'
She said, ?Neither am I?
-And either way I saw you reading 'No Depression'
-you're doing nothing, I?ll come over
Suggesting spending time together, watching '6 Feet Under,' and addressing the woman's condition.
We?ll watch '6 Feet Under'
-And then we?ll maybe get around to your condition
-With my medication, I will be fine
Reiteration of reliance on medication for well-being.
With my medication, I will be fine
-With my medication, I will be, I will be fine
-First she's gonna tire of my fixations
Expectation that the woman will grow tired of the speaker's fixations and appearance.
Then she's gonna tire of my face
-I'm gonna need a new affectation
-I'm gonna need a new one everyday, everyday
Expressing the need for a new behavior or style daily.
With my medication I will be fine
Reiteration of reliance on medication for well-being.
With my medication, I will be fine
-With my medication, I will be, I will be fine
