Dr. Pill
by: Kid Cudi(Verse 1)
My head is always busy
Stuck in a-Stuck in a-Stuck in a place I've been way far too long
It's not paranoia
I'm stuck in this hell
In this shell, I'm surely locked away losing who I is, in a coma
Tell me how to fix it cuz baby I have tried it all
Where did I go wrong, or out of order?
Doctor give me help, can you help me Dr. Pill
(Chorus)
Oh feelin strange feelin strange feelin strange
Oh feelin strange feelin strange feelin strange
(Hook)
Wake up in the mornin' feelin iffy
(What is goin' on with me?)
When I look in the mirror I don't know who this dude is
(Starin' right back at me)
Dr. Pill, Dr. Pill give me somethin' I'm feelin' I'll now
(What can you prescribe for me?)
Cuz When I look in the mirror I don't know who this dude is
(Starin' right back at me)
(Verse 2)
I admit I have been slipping
Stuck in a-Stuck in a-Stuck in a human like cell
And it's got legs and arms
It's not me talking bro that is my face
I have not known who that face belongs to in a while
Keepin' composure
Tell me what to do cuz just talkin' it ticks me out
I want to turn me down
I'm out of order
Doctor give me help, can you help me Dr. Pill
(Chorus)
Oh feelin strange feelin strange feelin strange
Oh feelin strange feelin strange feelin strange
(Hook)
Wake up in the mornin' feelin iffy
(What is goin' on with me?)
When I look in the mirror I don't know who this dude is
(Starin' right back at me)
Dr. Pill, Dr. Pill give me somethin' I'm feelin' I'll now
(What can you prescribe for me?)
Cuz When I look in the mirror I don't know who this dude is
(Starin' right back at me)
Wake up in the mornin' feelin iffy
(What is goin' on with me?)
When I look in the mirror I don't know who this dude is
(Starin' right back at me)
Dr. Pill, Dr. Pill give me somethin' I'm feelin' I'll now
(What can you prescribe for me?)
Cuz When I look in the mirror I don't know who this dude is
