Lyrics

The Doctor

Well, 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, doctor, doctor, doctor Doctor, doctor, doctor, 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 You don't want me to go You don't want me to go Oh, doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor Doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor Doctor, doctor, doctor, 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
