The lyrics are very clear criticism of the USA in our day and age, addressing the issue of fake news, and parodying the American way of defending the crazy situation the US is in, to maintain the oh-so-important ideal of ultimate freedom.
[Verse 1]
Oh, I can't afford my meds, existing all alone
Voices in my head, it's coming through my phone
I can't afford my meds, I wanna' see 'em dead
But at least I got a shotgun
[Pre-Chorus]
I can't afford my meds, but at least I got a shotgun
I can't afford my meds, but at least I got a shotgun
I can't afford my meds, but at least I got a shotgun
I can't afford my meds
[Chorus]
Dream a little dream, let it feed off all my needs
You know I love the man, love the man
He's got me in his hands, he tells us it's all good
As only darkness could
Please, dear God, lie, lie to me
[Verse 3]
Yeah, I can't afford my meds, something is unglued
I see it in my head, ain't buying your fake news
Wanna' see 'em dead, I can't afford my meds
And the answer's in my shotgun
[Pre-Chorus]
I can't afford my meds, but at least I got a shotgun
I can't afford my meds, but at least I got a shotgun
I can't afford my meds, but at least I got a shotgun
I can't afford my meds, but at least I got a shotgun
[Chorus]
Dream a little dream, let it feed off all my needs
You know I love the man, love the man
He's got me in his hands, he tells us it's all good
As only darkness could
Please, dear God, lie, lie to me
[Bridge]
It's not a lie if you believe it
It's not a lie if you believe it
It's not a lie if you believe it
It's not a lie if you believe it
It's not a lie if you believe it
It's not a lie if you believe it
It's not a lie if you believe it, ha
Yeah!
[Outro]
They got us right where they want us
At each other's throats
They got us right where they want us
At each other's throats
