I said to the doctor

I don't want to go home

I think you ought to

Leave this drip alone

I've become accustomed

To this level of attention

I have nurses I can talk to

And thermometers to hold

Though I feel

Just a little bit better

I could feel

So much better

Can't you see

Oh doctor

I've become accustomed

To this level of affection

I have visions I can talk to

And my nightmares to behold

Though I feel

Just a little bit better

I could feel

So much better

Can't you see

That I have a good bed here

I don't want to leave here

Just getting to know you

Don't want me to go

You don't want me to go

Oh doctor

I've become accustomed

To this level of infection

There are catheters to cling to

And my lifetime to unfold

Doctor

Doctor

Doctor

Doctor

Doctor

Doctor

Doctor

Doctor
