My house is full of depression antiques

From all the way, way back

Late last week, now

It's a D-E-P-R-E-S-S-I, oh, I-O-N

I ain't a gambler but I bet

It don't get better

Well, there ain't nothin' much to do

But sit and watch the tube

Wait 'til the pill comes and kicks the door through

On your D-E-P-R-E-S-S-I, oh, I-O-N

So sayeth the therapist, come back

Well, if you insist

I was so broke

That I went and got fixed

The veterinarian was nice

But my doctor was pissed, now

It's a D-E-P-R-E-S-S-I, oh, I-O-N

Well, I've always been a little bit sad around the edges

It ain't nothin' to fix

And it ain't contagious

It's just a D-E-P-R-E-S-S-I, oh, I-O-N

I ain't a gambler but I bet

It don't get better
