You left my heart in the desert
Thirsty and prayin' for rain
Now I know I deserve better
And you'll get what's comin' your way
You put me through hell
Had me under your spell
And boy, karma's a dangerous game
No, there ain't a pill you can pop
To stop the hurt in its tracks
Oh, there ain't a shot you can take
To wash down the pain
Of losin' everything we had
And when you can't sleep at night
Can't get me off your mind
You've had all that you can take
Baby tell me now
How does that medicine taste?
How does that medicine taste?
You've been out askin' about me
I hope you hate what you heard
That I got some new arms around me
Oh, how the tables have turned
Ain't no sweet in the bitter
No gold in the glitter
And boy I think it's time you learn
There ain't a pill you can pop
To stop the hurt in its tracks
Oh, there ain't a shot you can take
To wash down the pain
Of losin' everything we had
And when you can't sleep at night
Can't get me off your mind
And you've had all that you can take
Baby tell me now
How does that medicine taste?
How does that medicine taste?
There ain't a spoonful of sugar
To help this go down
There ain't a spoonful of sugar
And you're gonna find out
There ain't a pill you can pop
To stop the hurt in its tracks
Oh, there ain't a shot you can take
To wash down the pain
Of losin' everything we had
And when you can't sleep at night
Can't get me off your mind
And you've had all that you can take
Baby tell me now
How does that medicine taste?
How does that medicine taste?
How does that medicine taste?
