[Verse 1]
Gonna dive into a dive I've dove into before
Gonna haunt a haunt I've haunted like a million times or more
A familiar joint where getting drunk's the only point
To frequent this place with any frequency at all

[Chorus]
Countin' on a remedy I've counted on before
Goin' with the cure that's never failed me
What you call the disease, I call the remedy
And what you're callin' the cause, I call the cure

[Verse 2]
I'm gonna sing a song, a song to you, a song I've sung before
Belt out a ballad that I've belted out a million times or more
The words I'm gonna scream, and getting drunk's the central theme
To the lyrics, if you can
Make the lyrics out at all

[Chorus]
Countin' on a remedy I've counted on before
Goin' with the cure that's never failed me
What you call the disease, I call the remedy
And what you're callin' the cause, I call the cure

[Interlude]
[Bridge]
Just a devotion to a potion
Now please, no applause
A dedication to a medication
A crutch, a cure, a cause
What I've counted on to pick me up
Has knocked me to my knees
Before I hit the floor
Once more I'll call it the disease

[Chorus]
Countin' on a remedy I've counted on before
Goin' with the cure that's never failed me
What you call the disease, I call the remedy
And what you're callin' the cause, I call the cure

[Outro]
Call it the cure, I call the cure
Gonna dive into a dive I've dove into before
Call it the cure
Gonna sing a song I've sung a million times or more
