I don’t mean to be a big baby
But my threshold is pretty thin
Can’t stand the thought of steely-sharp needles
Penetrating my pale skin
And I go oh-oh, oh-oh
Hurt so bad
I can’t take it no more
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Hurt so bad
I am done for
I can’t stand the thought of going under
While a doctor does something I can’t see
What if he messes around with my private bits
And attaches my elbow to my knee
And I go oh-oh, oh-oh
Hurt so bad
I can’t take it no more
When I put myself in someone’s care
Will it turn into a nightmare
I’ve always been squeamish when it comes to pain
It is one of my many flaws
But I been abused and I been mistreated
It’s not like it’s without cause
