Dr. John

(Album: Truthdare Doubledare - 1986)

Gotta be careful who I meet tonight
Put up the struggle, I'll put up the fight
Loving is different, so full of fear
Can't love you right, until the cure is here

It's physical breakdown
It's emotional blackmail
It's uncontrollable it affects us all

Here I am Dr John
Here I am do you know what to do

The papers report in the wrong way
Don't care what they say, they don't educate
People look on it with a different view
Can you help me, explain
Do you know what to do

Used to be careless and so carefree
That old life-style will be the death of me
Dreading the system in this modern age
It's killing our people, must try to be brave

There must be something we can do
It's catching up, breaking through
There falls a silence across our land
The situation's out of hand

The situation is out of hand

Do you know what to do
