Who'll cry when the teardrops dry
Who'll sing when the song is over
Bless the man who's singing
For he is the medicine man
Which lie do the people buy
Influence or persuasion
Bless the government
For they have been bought by the medicine man
How long will the robbery go on
Playing songs on the bones of the citizens
Offering one choice of one remedy
Laugh along with the comedy of the medicine man
What kind of democracy
Postpones other remedies, the enemy
Bless the business man
For he is the medicine man
How long will the robbery go on
Playing songs on the bones of the citizens
Offering one choice of one remedy
Laugh along with the comedy of the medicine man
Imagine a sickness where thousands are dying
Remedies existing and thousands are dying
Cost is increasing still thousands are dying
And the government is slow, of course, and thousands are dying
But the medicine man, he is smiling now
Who'll breathe when the last one sighs
It's the medicine man with his big greedy eyes
Just making money on a dying man
Long live the hell of the medicine man
How long will the robbery go on
Playing songs on the bones of the citizens
Offering one choice of one remedy
Laugh along with the comedy of the medicine man
