Listen to my heartbeat |
|
Yeah, all fall down |
|
Someone help me off of the ground |
|
Listen to my heartbeat |
|
Yeah, all fall down |
|
Someone help me off of the ground |
|
Nelson and |
|
StarrHe's got ten grandkids, she's the third missus |
|
He grooves around intensive care |
|
Strutting his stuff |
|
He's got the perfect mullet hanging down his back |
|
And Starr walks in, gives a little wiggle |
|
Makes old |
|
Nelson grin |
|
He tucks me in, touches my feet"Hey buddy, you know you got a slow heartbeat" |
|
Listen to my heartbeat |
|
Yeah, listen to my heartbeat |
|
And the marching band plays along |
|
Plays the morphine song on charity ward |
|
Yeah, the marching band plays its song |
|
Yeah, all fall down |
|
Someone help me off of the ground |
|
Yeah, all fall down |
|
Someone help me off of the ground |
|
And opposite me |
|
Brenda the alkie coughs so deep |
|
It's the drugs and the drink, it could happen to anyone |
|
Sure makes me think |
|
And the bed beside her is full of cables and leaves |
|
Nobody visits, nobody grieves |
|
Listen to my heartbeat |
|
Yeah, listen to my heartbeat |
|
Nelson and |
|
StarrHe's got ten grandkids, she's the third missus |
|
Starr takes some blood out of my arm |
|
Rolls me over just like that |
|
Listen to my heartbeat, slow but clean |
|
While Brenda the alkie looks so mean |
|
They wheel her out, she starts to cry"If I don't get better, I'm gonna dieI'll go cold turkey till I'm cleanI'll go to jail but you get the morphine" |
|
Listen to my heartbeat |
|
Yeah, listen to my heartbeat |
|
And the marching band song |
|
Plays in the morgue at the charity ward |
|
Yeah, the marching band plays its song |
|
Yeah, all fall down |
|
Someone help me off of the ground |
|
Listen to my heartbeat |
|
Yeah, all fall down |
|
Someone help me off of the ground |
