Here I lie in my
hospital bed
Tell me,
sister morphine
when are you
coming round again?
Oh, and I don't think
I can wait that long...
Oh you see
that I'm 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 can't crawl
across the floor
Ah, can't you see
sister morphine
I'm trying to score
Well it just
goes to show
things are not
what they seem
Please sister morphine
turn my nightmares
into dreams
Oh can't you see
I'm fading fast?
And that this shot
will be my last
Sweet cousin cocaine
lay your cool cool
hands on my head
Ah come on,
sister morphine
you better
make up my bed
'Cos you know
and I know
in the morning
I'll be dead
Yeah and you can
sit around yeah and
you can watch all
the clean white
sheets stained red
Hey!
Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey!
