Cocaine Is Good For You

It turns out
That cocaine
Is good for you

We know, we know
We were shocked too
But studies were done
And the studies have shown
That cocaine
Does wonders
For your health

Provided you don’t die

That’s the only catch

You have to survive
Cocaine addiction
In order to reap the benefits
Of the drug

In fact
You need to do
Three times the amount of cocaine
That the average cocaine user does
In order to see any benefits at all
But my goodness
Those benefits
Are quite
Substantial

You’re probably wondering
How exactly did we do these studies
And who participated in them
And who conducted them
And where were they done
And was there a control group
And did the people doing the study
Know what a control group was
Before they began the study
And those are all wonderful questions
Which we cannot answer

But suffice it to say
Our study was not sponsored
Or supported, in any way
By drug dealers

But it was supported
By people who might be drug dealers
Because everybody might be a drug dealer
If you think about it
Long enough

And what exactly is so shocking
About these results?

After all, we’ve been discovering
That lots of things we thought were bad for us
Are, in fact, actually good for us

Coffee, ice cream, wine
Divorce, casual sex, not having children

Why should cocaine be left off that list?

Doesn’t it make you happier?
Doesn’t it make you more productive?
Doesn’t it make you feel like you’ve got the world on a string
As you sing ‘I’ve Got the World on a String’
At a piano bar in Tokyo
On an all-inclusive trip you couldn’t afford
With some guy you met two days ago
At a party you crashed
After you did more cocaine
Than you promised yourself you were going to do
Before your boss called
And told you that if you were late one more time
He was going to fire you?

I mean, come on, that doesn’t happen with Tylenol
Hahahaha
--Unless you snort it

Our studies have shown
That if you don’t have cocaine on hand
Tylenol will work
Provided nobody tells you it’s Tylenol
And suggests, instead, that it’s cocaine

So you see
Just the suggestion of cocaine
Can make your life better

Now, we suspect that the FDA will not be happy
With what we’ve discovered
But somehow they’re just fine and dandy
Stuff like Xanax and Adderall

Well, let me tell you something
None of our studies showed anything
About how dangerous those drugs are
So I think we can safely assume
That those drugs are very, very dangerous

And we know, scientifically
That cocaine is actually wonderful
As soon as you live past
The danger

Oh, doesn’t that sound amazing?

Live Past the Danger

When we start marketing cocaine
I think that should be the slogan
‘Cocaine--Live Past the Danger’
We’re going into production on the commercial tomorrow
So we’d have to act fast
But I really think we’ve got something there

Well, I’m sure you’re all relieved to hear
The findings of our study
And I’ve got to tell you
As soon as I found out cocaine was good for you
I started doing it myself
And I have never felt better
Plus I’ve already conducted and completed several other tests
On tequila, texting while driving, and this new club drug called Thumper

The results aren’t in yet on those
But something tells me
We’re in for a lot of good news
