The Lyrics

They’re gonna snake the wires in his back; there will be two.
Lying on the table, he’ll get a special brew
of fentanyl and versed, before jolts come due.

The two will then combine to work in synchrony;
now it’s time to apply the technology.
Doc will guide in the wires with fluoroscopy.

He is mellow;
by now he’s chillin’.
Very mellow
and more than willin’.

Video image; radio sparks;
this is the drill for radio sparks.
Pictures show doc where to start,
on the fluoroscope.

When wires are in, the ablation is primed to go,
but he can’t feel electric stimulation flow.
Sedation…tingling sensation he don’t know.

The juice then flows:
First zap number 1.
Another jolt:
There’s a second done.

Nix on the pills in radio sparks;
injector’s skilled in radio arts.
Synapses are in the dark,
as on the table he is parked,
in the zone;
he don’t moan.

Video guided radio sparks;
injector skilled in radio arts.
Wires from SI joint depart.
When he wakes up, the spot might smart.
Then he is rolled on a cart
to where consciousness restarts.

Video image; radio sparks.
Iliac ills need radio sparks.
Iliac thrilled with radio sparks.
Iliac skill in radio arts.
Ignition skill for radio arts.
Iliac’s stilled with radio sparks.
Stillness, then he awakes with a start.
Vision’s instilled; conversation starts.
Mission’s fulfilled: the radio sparks
killed the nerves till their growth will restart.
