Oh, take this pill because you're ill
I bet you didn't even know
Take 1 in a day and 1 in a night
And feel them problems go

And so the tubs fly off the shelf
But the benefits of that kid's mental health
And everybody's scottling, rattlin', rizzin' around
'Cause there will be times that you feel depressed

There will be times that you'll feel good
There will be times that you feel like doing
What you really know you shouldn't

So take you arms and let them in
'Cause it's your every right
The chance for the right folks each and every night

Oh, take this pill because you're ill
I bet you didn't even know
Take 1 in a day and 1 in a night
And feel them problems go

And so the tubs fly off the shelf
But the benefits of that kid's mental health
And everybody's scottling, rattlin', rizzin' around

Gimme some Ritalin, gimme some Ritalin
Let's don't forget the kid's only 8 years old

Oh, take this pill because you're ill
I bet you didn't even know
Take 1 in a day and 1 in a night
And feel them problems go

And so the tubs fly off the shelf
But the benefits of that kid's mental health
And everybody's scottling, rattlin', rizzin' around
