I'm back at home but listless,
I still leak from all the stitches
back at home, but restless, yeah
but improving all the time
and it's been so long,
since I have been here,
writing songs,
to pass the time away,
get back up to par,
back at home but listless
it's gonna take some time
but I'll get there

top to toe in gauze pads
oh I got I.V's all around
but soon my gut's on ebay,
I can look down and see the ground

what I can't get through
was that big blob me?
it can't be true
NASA can't track me
back at home but listless
back at home but listless
but I now get calories....

I took one look at the patient next to me
he was the same
it's such a shame

got this way, got careless,
I had those snackers all around
and chocolate every Christmas, yeah
every year I'd put on pounds
now I'll try to do
what used to fear me
get under "two"
my wife endears me,
when I lose this scar,
I won't be quite so listless
no more eating Quiznos
with a thousand calories...
