Michael Penn - Seen The Doctor - Текст песни

I loved a girl once

beyond compare

She saw inside me

and gave me air

She was assisting

my surgery

My heart was opened

as she put a mask on me

I'm breathing

but it's become a chore

"Now that you've seen the doctor

don't call me anymore"


I was impatient

I was not in full arrest

and the symptoms were induced by something

I could not digest

She'd said a mouthful

I'd swallowed whole

My heart starts beating

a capriole,

a murmur,

too different to ignore

"Now that you've seen the doctor

don't call me anymore"

		

	I underwent

	and it smelled

	of a wild goose chase

	Then I saw your face

	upside down

		

He comes in creeping

He is a creep

a samurai

It's not fair peeking

(that is a lie)

Mermaid on Pico

lifts her fin,

demands a towel

And thinking of you 

is not avowal

And over

and over it I pour

"Now that you've seen the doctor

don't call me anymore"


I'm breathing

but it's become a chore

Now that I've seen the doctor

You're just a fucking bore

like Dorothy Lamour

dolled up in Singapore

to meet the Commodores

Don't call me anymore
