And please allow me to be your anti- depressant, I too, am prescribed as freely As any decongestant

Artist- The Wombats
Song of the day- Anti-D

My friend Blake turned me on to the fantasticness of The Wombats and this new song of theirs. And I do love songs about medical drugs I know cuz it makes me feel smart. And we all know how much I already love depressing songs that sound peppy. But I think the video and song give an interesting picture on the subject. Of being in all black and slow motion when the world is colorful and kinda bizarre all around you. And spending some time in a mind and around minds that struggle with this and other issues, I do find them to be some of the most intuitive and compassionate people which is what the chorus of the song makes me think of. The whole song about a guy who's depressed wanting to be the thing that stops depression for someone else instead of drugs. Empathy is an interesting thing that makes me pretty happy to be human. Plus violins and rock music, hurray!



Please allow me to be your anti- depressant,
I too, am prescribed as freely
As any decongestant

We kick back and let the pills do the talking
People hear a distinct rattle when we’re walking
Then there’s the extra two stone that’s our only guarantee

Our vivid dreams are just like big production movies
They get entangled well within our daily routines
So please re-think or use my dream-on strategy

And please allow me to be your anti- depressant,
I too, am prescribed as freely
As any decongestant

Its hard to smile when your as flattened as a pancake
The only tears come from our heads when we concentrate
Perhaps I'm being unjust or perhaps you agree

Still I've thrown away my citalopram
I need more than what was in those forty miligrams
So cast away with the doctors plans

And please allow me to be your anti- depressant,
I too, am prescribed as freely
As any decongestant

Still I’ve thrown away my citalopram
Although I felt as grim as the reaper man
So cast away with the doctors plans
Like me
