Jack Stafford, Podsongs - Where Were the Drugs? Lyrics

Where were the drugs in our hour of need?
Where were the drugs against this deadly disease?
That it's wholly untreatable's not entirely believable
But for what other reason can you rush through vaccines?

Are you really telling me?
When every other ad I see
Pumped in by TV
Is for a magic cure
I don't believe you anymore

Cos all doctors were pharmacists
All-day long prescription lists
Now suddenly the only thing in their bag is
Paracetamol

Where were the drugs in our hour of need?
Where were the drugs are we being deceived?
Can we wake up from denial, we're in one big clinical trial
And Paracetamol is not an anti-viral

Why can't drugs be authorized?
Until you've been hospitalized
The system has been paralyzed
Right before our very eyes
Everyone's been hypnotized
With the thought of being immunized
The unjabbed are despised

Now there are drugs you cannot mention
It's become a sin
Even to talk about ivermectin
Or Hydroxyquinoline

There must not be
Vaccine hesitancy

And all the SARS that went before
We treated them we won the war
But suddenly the only thing we have is
Paracetamol

Where were the drugs in our hour of need?
Where were the drugs are we being deceived?
Can we wake up from denial, we're in one big clinical trial
And Paracetamol is not an anti-viral

Where were the drugs in our hour of need?
Where were the drugs against this deadly disease?
That it's wholly untreatable's not entirely believable
But for what other reason can you rush through vaccines?
