Purdue Pharmaceuticals
Lord, son, your back hurts?
Must’ve pulled it lugging around
Down through the mines day in and
Day out.
Well, we got real good news for you!
Over at Purdue, they got something brand new
To take all that pain away.
Ain’t even gonna cost you all that much, neither.
Just pay a visit on down to your doctor,
The one you’ve been seeing since you was
A tyke;
Tell him about the back pain and he’ll give you
A prescription,
Just like that,
In and out real quick like all the rest of his patients
Day in
And day out.
The pill’s gonna go down nice and easy,
Then you ain’t gonna feel a thing.
Relief like you never known it before.
You’ll be mighty glad you got your hands
On some Oxy!
Why, Sarah’s cousin up the holler’ll pay you real good money
For just a pill or two.
His whole paycheck for a portion of your
Prescription –
Cause that’s how good them pills are.
Why don’tcha go on back and get a refill
Just in case?
Trust me, son,
Once you get going on these bad babies,
Y’ain’t gonna ever wanna run out.

Oooh, this is so dark and so good. I love the voice and how the whole thing evokes a snake oil salesmen vibe. Really well written.
Excellent first person presentation. I really like the voice.
Nice turn when you shift from personal use to selling and finally to addiction. Getting around KASPAR means going out of state.
