lyrics

there's a hole in the sink
you need a hole for when the water flows
no, it's not what you think
it's just a hole where the water goes

john, put the paperweight down

it's a slippery thing
life's confusing at the best of times
but when your brain's in a swing
it's pretty hard to read the traffic signs

john, put the paperweight down
i'm not a fan of the big pharma suits
but sometimes you've just got to take that pill

john, you're not on your own
i know you think you're stuck inside yourself
some things you tough out alone
but with some you need a little help

john, put the paperweight down
my god john we love you so much
but sometimes you've just got to take that pill
