SING IT to the tune of Bye Bye Blackbird
Buy our little purple pill—
It will cure your every ill.
Buy, buy our brand!
If you feel the least bit sick,
Trust in us—our ads are slick.
Buy, buy our brand!
Millions die in other lands
Cause they can’t afford our brands.
Buy, buy our brand!
So pay the price—and buy some more.
Our goods are flying from the store.
Buy, buy our brand!
Get your doc to specify our brand name.
Reject generics even though they’re just the same.
We’ve got purple pills galore,
And patent rights forevermore!
Our brand! Buy, buy!
