lyrics

I got a pre-existing condition
I got this terminal disease
I'm just wasting away a little more every day,
so I'm begging, and I'm down on my knees, doctor, please
I got this pre-existing condition
got this cancer growing inside
got this pre-existing condition, and it's my mission
to discover if my coverage is gonna be denied.
can you cover me?

got this pre-existing condition
stray bullets all over my neighborhood
gotta get to the store to get some milk and I'm sure
if I do not have protection then my chances do not look good.
can you cover me?

I got a social disease is what I'm trying to say
it's in my genetic code, just like my sisters and brothers
article one, section two, paragraph three of my DNA
says some parts of me are worth three-fifths of the others
my pre-existing condition is that I recognize the threat
of the compromises made in my weak constitution
my pre-existing condition is that I'm not dead yet,
and I'm scrambling around for some kind of solution

I got this pre-existing condition
I am sexist and racist to the core
I am deeply unequal but I'd like to live to see the sequel
where the brotherhood of man can come back to the fore
I got this pre-existing condition
I got bigots knocking over my graves
and my medulla oblongata is a crazy man who oughta
be ashamed of how he twitters and how he misbehaves.
can you cover me?
