Bad Medicine - Bon Jovi

I ain't got a fever got a permanent disease
It'll take more than a doctor to prescribe a remedy
I got lots of money but it isn't what I need
Gonna take more than a shot to get this poison out of me
I got all the symptoms count 'em 1,2,3

Another song from the best band to come out of New Jersey, "Bad Medicine" by Bon Jovi is a killer rockin' song that uses a LOT of medical metaphors and analogies to discuss how his love for this woman is like a drug addiction.

Released in 1988, "Bad Medicine" made it to Number 1 for the band, and was included first on their incredibly successful New Jersey album (along with one of my favorite songs of all time "I'll Be There For You")

This song completely kicks ass, of course, and is still a staple at all Bon Jovi concerts. I've even seen the band include a minute-long musical rendition of the classic song "Shout" in the middle of there live concert version of "Bad Medicine"

Enjoy the rock behind the song, and have a good giggle at some of these lyrics. You'll love it!
