I walked into the health food store
Bell ringing as i opened the door
I got cash at the atm
Stocked up on vitamins
Pausing in front of the medicine chest
You didn't even notice
Then i looked and it began to rain
It came down in buckets again
$30 or a suit of gold what will it take to lick this cold?
I reached for a magazine
To cover my insecurity
I asked you about echinacea
I heard it does wonders for colds
Yeah i heard something's been going around
Everyone i know has it
I brought the stuff up to the counter
You rang it up on the register
$30 or a suit of gold what will it take to lick this cold?
You know it doesn't happen too much
But every now & then it does
Some stranger will break your heart
Inspiring a work of art
Confusion & pain will cease
You'll make a masterpiece
You know you look like one
How does it feel to be another one?
$30 or a suit of gold what will it take to lick this cold?
