The Devil Wore a Lab Coat – Mary Kutter

It was, hey Doc, there's a thing in my knee Been working underground since 83 Doctor said, "I got you the remedy It'll kill that pain real quick, trust me" Didn't take long, half the town was on it Didn't ask questions, nah, we just popped them Doctors getting fat from ranking in kickbacks It all happened so fast

One man's grave is another man's paycheck RX meds at our expense Forget the coal mines, they hit a goldmine Hooked us on six feet of side effects Like a wolf dressed in sheep's clothes The devil wore a lab coat

Appalachian map dots were the perfect bullseye For the pharma reps chasing dollar signs All their billions couldn't buy a decent alibi You can say what you want, but tombstones don't lie Strong towns torn down by little pills Sold with a smile, don't care when it kills No coincidence, no conspiracy It just is what it is, it's our history

One man's grave is another man's paycheck RX meds at our expense Forget the coal mines, they hit a goldmine Hooked us on six feet of side effects Like a wolf dressed in sheep's clothes The devil wore a lab coat The devil wore a lab coat

Only God can judge But they're corrupt and they don't care We'd tell them to go to hell But they're already going there Yeah, they're already going there

One man's grave is another man's paycheck RX meds at our expense (at our expense) Forget the coal mines, they hit a goldmine Hooked us on six feet of side effects Like a wolf dressed in sheep's clothes The devil wore a lab coat, mm The devil wore a lab coat, mm, oh

One man's grave is another man's paycheck, mm
