Font:      
Align:    
  • Here I lie in my hospital bed,
  • Tell me, sister morphine, when are you coming round again.
  • Oh, I dont think I can wait that long,
  • Oh, you see Im not that strong.
  • The scream of the ambulance is sounding in my ears.
  • Tell me, sister morphine, how long have I been lying here ?
  • What am I doing in this place ?
  • Why does the doctor have no face ?
  • Oh, I cant crawl across the floor.
  • Cant you see, sister morphine, Im just trying to score.
  • Well, it just goes to show things are not what they seem.
  • Please, sister morphine, turn my nightmare into dreams.
  • Oh, cant you see Im fading fast
  • And that this shot will be my last.
  • Sweet cousin cocaine, lay your cool hands on my head.
  • Hey, sister morphine, youd better make up my bed
  • For you know and I know in the morning Ill be dead,
  • And you can sit around and you can watch the clean white sheets stain red.
