lyrics

Went to the doctor
She said I’m screwed
She said my health was anything but rude
“Your BP has gone through the ceiling”
She said it in a voice bereft of real feeling
“Take a Beta Blocker, take a diuretic
Overall I’d say you look pretty pathetic
Come back next week
We’ll see what we will see
Drink a lot of water
Don’t hold in your pee”
Just when I thought that my life totally sucked
It’s like I ain’t seen nothing
My shit is fucked

Came down with shingles
Unimagined pain
Couldn’t sleep for weeks on end
‘Bout drove me insane
Next thing I knew I had neuralgia
It was like being burned alive
And I was no brave soldier
I whooped and yelled
I hollered and screamed
Nothing could be worse than this
Or so it seemed
Just when I thought that my life totally sucked
It’s like I ain’t seen nothing
My shit is fucked

Went to the dentist
Hadn’t been in years
He said my teeth were shit
‘Bout brought me down to tears
“Gonna hafta pull ‘em all out
And replace ‘em all with fakes”
He didn’t sugarcoat it
Just said, “Dems da breaks”
“It’s what you get for poor hygiene
Now rinse your mouth out
With this here fluorine”
Just when I thought that my life totally sucked
It’s like I ain’t seen nothing
My shit is fucked
