You better take your medicine If the world isn't fair Your small hands And big heart, need care When kindness is an orphan And hatred has a lurk You better take your medicine To be sure You say you've got a trampoline Up and down like a bell You see I've fallen through it Heaven is as far away as hell. You can live like a Roman Call your legions to their posts But the bigger the army The heavier the dose You better take your medicine Though it may go down thick It won't be as bitter as when He could roll you like a dollar And he could wear you like a glove But he won't know your medicine 'Cause your medicine Is love
