Intervention Lyrics - Singles - Margaret Cho

It's not your birthday 

But all your friends and family are here 

What's the occasion? 

'Cause the motive seem unclear 

Some are happy, some are shedding lots of tears 

They're saying now 

What they should have said for years 

We're doing this 'cause 

We're concerned about your health 

We're doing this to, save you from yourself 

Welcome, to your intervention 

We need some of your attention 

You've got a problem we must mention 

We're not gonna put you in detention 

But we think you need, think you need 

An intervention 

We know all of the paramedics on a first name basis 

Don't you see how bloated 

Your pretty face is 

Time forgives, time erases 

Time will catch what the dragon chases 

We where there when we lost you to meth 

And we're sick of loving you to death 

Welcome, to your intervention 

We need some of your attention 

You've got a problem we must mention 

We're not gonna put you in detention 

But we think you need, think you need 

An intervention 

Tegan:(clears throat) 

Margaret, S-Sara, Sara, Sara, Sara and I 

Wanted to um write, write this letter 

And we wanted to write this letter to you, to you Because um well we, 

We wanted to make sure we said everything. 

Margaret: 

Oh look who can read! 

You know what, you know something? 

I can read too! 

You don't have to read me a, a letter, Teeegan! 

Just to prove that you're better than me! 

I'm not, you don't know me! 

Sara, you don't know me! 

You don't - (throws up) 

I'm sorry, was that your jack-o lantern? 

I'm so sorry. 

I'm sorry Tegan. 

I'm sorry Sara. 

I-Is there anything - you think I need help? 

No more hugs 'til you give up drugs 

I know it sucks for once think about us 

No more hugs 'til you give up drugs 

I know it sucks for once think about us 

No more hugs 'til you give up drugs 

I know it sucks for once think about us 

No more hugs 'til you give up drugs 

I know it sucks for once think about us 

Welcome, to your intervention(oh,oh) 

We need some of your attention 

You've got a problem we must mention(oh,oh) 

We're not gonna put you in detention 

Welcome, to your intervention(oh,oh) 

We need some of your attention 

You've got a problem we must mention(oh,oh) 

We're not gonna put you in detention 

But we think you need, think you need 

An intervention
