The Lyrics

One particular hospital
Livin' on morphine
Pain is so obscene
Why don't they just put the pump on my I.V?

Hooked up with hoses
Its no bed of roses
I look like Frankenstein for all kids to see

Wastin' away again on chemotherapy
Waiting for my new human hair wig
The doctors say I will die soon anyway
So I will
Make the best of today

The orderlies are bores
I'm getting new bed sores
I'm waiting for them to flip me over

Nurses have great duty
It's a thing of beauty
But why does the job have such high turnover?

Wastin' away again on chemotherapy
Waiting for my new human hair wig
The doctors say I will die soon anyway
So I will
Make the best of today

I threw up my dinner
Don't feel like a winner
I feel like this poison's starting to kill me

There's saline in the I.V.
And it will help me see
Another day of long-term recovery

Wastin' away again on chemotherapy
Waiting for my new human hair wig
The doctors say I will die soon anyway
So I will
Make the best of today

LOL... I know some cancer patients who would agree. There's got to be a better way.
