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
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 a liar and a theif
Sit and drink pennyroyal tea
I'm anemic royalty

I'm on warm milk and laxitives
Cherry-flavored antacids

I sit and drink pennyroyal tea
Distill the life that's inside of me
Sit and drink pennyroyal tea
I'm anemic royalty
