Big Audio Dynamite - Medicine Show lyrics

rate me

Covered wagon medicine show

Take you to the place where the healing flows

Weak in spirit we got the juice

Wont save your soul it`ll shine your shoes

Treated king to kangaroo

Santa Fe to Timbuktu

Don`t be fooled by imitation

This is the stuff that cured a nation

We took the tube and the high plains too

Never stopped long just passing through

A drop of the laughter of the maids of France

Makes a hopeless cripple dance

It was really vile weather

When we got to tarred and feathered

You could hear the six guns sound

As they chased us out of town

In India we`re all the rave

Discovered that its great as aftershave

Dropped in the sea just off Japan

Swapped 20 bottles for an aqua-walkman

Immunity from ridicule

Improves your brains if you`re a fool

And I read in the Middle East

They traded some for a hostage release

Now if you`re bald it`ll give you hair

If you got straight trousers it`ll give you flares

Feeling up you`ll get depressed

Out of style here`s a brand new dress

It was really vile weather

When we got to tarred and feathered

You could hear the six guns sound

As they chased us out of town

The stuff we sell is just the best

Passing all consumer test

Days of heaven nights of sin

Voodoo stick and sharks fin

When all around you seems like hell

Just one sip will make you well

Multipurpose in a jar

If you ain`t ill it`ll fix your car

In days of yore for all bad feelings

Washing socks and stripping ceilings

Nowadays its used medicinally

For all known human malady

It was really vile weather

When we got to tarred and feathered

You could hear the six guns sound

As they chased us out of town

Guaranteed don`t you know

Money back?

You`ll get a no!

It`s the one and only medicine show
