Blue Pill, Red Pill

[Lady Tatsh]

I had an interesting conversation this morning!
Kudos to anyone who get's the references.



Hey there little girl,
why so blue?
You say, the kids,
they pick on you?
Here, take this!
A little blue pill,
You won't care what
the kids say to you!

Hey there little boy,
why so sad?
You say, your mom,
she's beat by Dad?
Here, take this!
A little blue pill,
You'll forget about
all things that are bad!

Hey there little girl,
What's that you drew?
She looks so sad,
What's wrong with you?
Here, take this!
A little blue pill,
You'll be normal
and do good in school!

Hey there little boy,
What have you done?
You went to work
and used that gun?
Shot yourself dead
right after the kill?
Well, my friend,
you get a red pill.

Kinda, amongst other things.

Well then...illuminate me from your angle...

The main reference was how a lot of doctors will prescribe medication without thinking twice on it... the actually pill reference came much later.
The last line refers to an infamous incident involving a man taking flouxetine (Prozac).
