Well, you flew to New Orleans
To rent a car and to see your friend
To put him in the hospital again
In the back
On the second floor
Right across from radio bar
No food in the fridge
I guess things had gone too far

Well, all things come, and all things pass
Takes a lot of medicine to go this fast
(Takes a lot of medicine to go this fast)
(Takes a lot of medicine to go this fast)
Well, all things come, and all things pass
(Takes a lot of medicine to go this fast)

Did man invent his illnesses?
We're fundamentally unstable
Mother Mary's shrine
Hiding under the table
In your blue silk robe
Burning cigarettes
Dreaming of Isolde on a Baton Rouge deck
Where you going and what's on spec?

Well, all things come, and all things pass
It takes a lot of medicine to go this fast
(Takes a lot of medicine to go this fast)
(Takes a lot of medicine to go this fast)
Oh, all things come, and all things pass, but
(Takes a lot of medicine to go this fast)

I know, I know the feeling too
I know that's why I'm here with you
Receiver mind grabbing every stray broadcast
Yes, it's true
It takes a lot of medicine
Just to go this fast

(Takes a lot of medicine to go this fast)
(Takes a lot of medicine to go this fast)
(Takes a lot of medicine to go this fast)
(Takes a lot of medicine to go this fast)
