"Say Ahh" as Haiku

I make you say "ahh"
Just like I'm your doc-tah. All
I prescribe is cran-

(-berry and vodka.)
- Trey Songz/Fabolous, Say Ahh


Ethan's response:
I like reading it as one would a haiku. Suddenly, it has all kinds of depth and inner meaning. Is the poet making a subtle reference to the epidemic of self-prescription in the medical community? By likening himself to the listener's physician, is the speaker expressing a detailed fascination with and study of the listener?
