Re-Hab Songtext
von Stew

When she got out of rehab for the very first time
She was very very very optimistic
First she bought a set of paints
Then she started painting saints
′Cause in Echo Park that passes for artistic
Then one day her art dealer came by with a sin
Next thing we knew she was on the rope again

When she got out of rehab for the very first time
She was very very very very very very
Very very very very very optimistic

When she got out of rehab for the very second time
It was clear that she was painfully embarrassed
She was brimming with clichés
Spoke of how she counted days
Playing checkers with a roadie from Say Ferris
Then she hit Los Feliz with some homemade earrings to sell
But the hip gift shop assistant led her back to hell


When she got out of rehab for the very second time
She was very very very very very very
Very very very very very optimistic

When she got out of rehab for the third or fourth time
I suspected, well, a kind of pattern forming
So I plotted carefully how I'd bow out gracefully
′Cause I'd seen this flick before and it gets boring
Next she's in a band called Star of David Brinkley′s
They were ropers one and all
But they loved and met the weekly

When she got out of rehab for the third or fourth time
She was very very very very very very
Very very very very very optimistic

When she got out of rehab for the twenty-second time
Her new take on life was very deep and empty
She traded mainline for online
Then she took up web design
Now she′s paid in full and blows the horn of plenty
Once she said "Hey listen baby I ain't gonna lie
There just ain′t nothing I like more than getting high"
And funny how the maniacs who took the time to sob
Seem to not mind a junkie with a well-paying job


When she got out of rehab for the twenty-second time
She was very very very very very very
Very very very very very optimistic

Very very very very very very very very very very very optimistic
