girl
you have no faith in medicine
oh girl
you have no faith in medicine
acetaminophen
you see the medicine
oh girl
is there a way to find a cure for this implanted in a pill?
it's just the name upon the bottle
that determines if it will?
is the problem you're allergic
to a well familiar name?
do you have a problem with this one
if the results are the same?
acetaminophen

oh girl
oh girl
you have no faith in medicine
acetaminophen
you see the medicine
well strip the bark right off a tree
and just hand it this way
don't even need a drink of water
to make the headache go away
give me a sugar pill
and watch me just rattle down the street
acetaminophen
you see the medicine
oh girl
you have no faith in medicine

Jack White:
"It came from a discussion between me and other guys about when
girlfriends have headaches and won't take certain medicines 'cos it has
"something in it". Guy's will swallow anything. It's because [women] don't
have any faith. It was supposed to go on White Blood Cells. It was no fun
at all to sing. Meg had a lot of problems with it. I actually took a lyric
out because I thought it ws too harsh. - 'I don't have the patience to
watch you battle every minuscule disease.'"
Jack White:
"I suppose it is just about this tongue in cheek take on male and female
relationships when things are bothering girls about headache medicine.
Aspirin, Tylenol and things like that. Its like men can take anything like
a sugar pill and it will make their headache go away but there is always
some sort of special care for women. It is sort of a metaphor for taking
the time to care for someone I guess."
