Lyrics Ray Stevens – Jeremiah Peabody’s Polyunsaturated Quick–Dissolving Fast–Acting Pleasant–Tasting Green And Purple Pills
Text:
Do you have that rundown feelin’, does your head go reelin’?
Are you nervous, jumpy or on the edge?
Is it neuritis, neuralgia, a head cold or stress?
Or maybe it’s your sinus drainage.
Do you have tired blood, beriberi?
Or maybe you’re a little overweight?
You better make some correction in all this infection,
Just send in one dollar ninety eight.
Get ridda that runny nose (sniiiff), that naggin’ cough (cough), that sneeze (achoo),
That wheeze (gasp) and other injuries.
Take the wonder drug that cures all your ills,
Take Jeremiah Peabody’s polyunsaturated, quick dissolvin’, fast actin’,
Pleasant tastin’ green and purple pills.
Oh yeah!
Well, it won’t upset your stomach, it’s good for arthiritis,
It soothes all your aches and pains.
Get ridda those hammers in your head,
Don’t be a hyprakrondriac,
Start feelin’ better again.
Clear up that fungus amongus;
It’s good for every ailment, includin’ water on the knee.
And it’s guaranteed to be just what you need
For quick, fast, speedy relief.
Get ridda that runny nose (sniiiff), that naggin’ cough (cough), that sneeze (achoo),
That wheeze (gasp) and other injuries.
Take Jeremiah Peabody’s polyunsaturated, quick dissolvin’, fast actin’,
Pleasant tastin’ green and purple pills.
Oh, yeah! Little green and purple pills,
Oh, yeah, little green and purple pills…
