PROZAC GIRLS

© 1999 Eric W. Fons

Prozac girls make me cry
Stick a fork in my eye
Prozac girls, get a clue
The world ain’t made just for you
Take a break from your drugs
You think your arm’s covered with bugs
Every boy needs a …Prozac Girl

Prozac girls and Wellbutrin boys
Stay in bed and play with your toys
Now you’re making too much noise
My ceiling’s collapsing from your joys
Take my hand and I’ll save you
From yourself and your talking shoes
Every boy loves a …Prozac Girl

Don’t forget the Lithium and Xanax girls
Give ‘em love and lots of pearls
Otherwise they’ll act like rabid squirrels
And make your little nose hairs curl
They’ll love you to death and hate your guts
Damn well better guard your nuts
Every boy wants a ….Prozac Girl

Let’s take a trip on a merry-go-round
Of emotional upheavals and nervous breakdowns
Thinking she’ll improve is a fan-ta-sy
Ride the mood swing roller coaster into the sea
Of psychotic episodes and fits of rage
Go on now, get back in your cage!
Every boy needs a…Prozac Girl
