I think I still have it, I wonder if it's worth anything seeing the single was withdrawn.

I couldn't remember how this went so I went to youtube. Its kind of funny what passed for legit lyrics then. If anyone had written that today, I would have no time for it.
Its also odd that such irreverent lyrics and wholly crushing depression took hold that strongly with the young kids. I mean, its weird to think that many people signed up to be depressed.
Had to be there I guess.

I'm on my time with everyone
I have very bad posture
I sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
Distill the life that's inside of me
I sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
I'm anemic royalty
Give me a Leonard Cohen afterworld
So I can sigh eternally
I'm so tired I can't sleep
I'm anemic royalty
I'm a liar and a thief
I'm anemic royalty
I'm on warm milk and laxatives
Cherry flavored antacids
I sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
Distill the life that's inside of me
I sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
I'm anemic royalty
