lyrics

MERCURY:
So you've noticed
Life is empty and without meaning
(We've got a pill for that)
On this rocky sphere
Out through time and space careening
(We've got a pill for that)
Why should you cry and sigh my my
And watch your only life slide by
(We've got a pill yeah)
Come run away and play today
and say "hellay! this is the way!"
(We've got a pill yeah)

MERCURY & BOY:
Enjoy the soothing balm of confidence and calm of mental peace
As your world is tinted rosy
Just take this jolly colored capsule it's convenient time-release
Feel safe secure and cosy

MERCURY & BECKY:
Have you seen us
We have got it all on automatic
(We've got a pill for that)
The love between us
Remains complex and problematic
(We've got a pill for that)
It’s not too late, why wait for fate
You can create a great new you
(We've got a pill yeah)
Blow to and fro and crow no no
Or let it go and breathe anew
(We've got a pill yeah)

MERCURY & BOY:
Enjoy the soothing balm of confidence and calm of mental peace
You’ll soon be feeling better
Just take this jolly colored capsule it's convenient time-release
And kid go out and get her.

KITTEN:
La la la la la la, one every morning
La la la la la la, one every evening too
This is our gift to you.

CAST:
Hmmm, we’ve got a pill for those whose shoulders ache
Hmmm, we’ve got a pill for those whose poor hearts break
Hmmm, we’ve got a pill for those who lie awake
Hmmm, it’s a piece of cake, so come on….
Why feel this fear?
Why shed a tear?
Salvation’s here!
All the pain can disappear!
So come on, so come on
Your trusty pill is standing near!

MERCURY Z:
Possible side effects may include: loss of appetite, loss of sex drive, loss of the ability to love, loss of the ability to enjoy life, in fact complete waste of your entire mortal existence—but not to worry ladies and gentlemen, it’s FDA approved! Hoo ha!

BOY-O:
Enjoy the soothing balm of confidence and calm of mental peace
As your world is tinted rosy
Just take this jolly colored capsule it's convenient time-release
Feel safe secure and cosy
