Government Flu

We got a drug

We're gonna try it out on you

Won't make you die

It'll get you just a little bit sick

Got a head cold

Got a chest cold

And it's two days old

Goin' on forever

Make you hazy

Make you lazy

Drive you crazy

For day and days and day and days and years

Barely got the time now

To stay on the job

Double up the dosage

In your water supply

Make you even sicker 'til you're slippin' away

Make you all depressed

It's getting all your friends

You can't get it up

For nothing that'll rock the boat

The government flu

The government flu

The government flu

Slip it aboard

Keep-a-slowin' down the USSR

But meanwhile, we'll keep an eye

On what it's doin' to you

Got a head cold

Got a chest cold

And it's two days old

Goin' on forever

Make you hazy

Make you lazy

Drive you crazy

For days and days and days and days and days

And days and days and days and days and days

And days and days and days and days and days

And years

The government flu

The government flu

The government flu

Flew, Through, You
