Open-Heart Surgery Lyrics


cart you down the corridor

unaware of what's in store

prep you up for surgery

these kind of doctors have no fee

don't ask for a sedative

heart rate machines do not exist

there's no need for an I.V.

lay down while they do the rest

the doctors that are employed here

their malpractice rates are quite severe

check in for a night you won't check out

just how good are they you'll soon find out

scalpels plunge into your chest

then pierce your hidden heart

cut off circulation to the brain

lacerate you part by part

open heart surgery

madmen's butchery

can't believe what you see

the pain and agony

growing weak but it doesn't matter

your bodies a pulp that they bruise and batter

first you'll suffer then you'll scream

your worst nightmare is not a dream

got a headache?

then they'll dissect your brain

have a sore foot?

remove it to ease the pain

feeling dizzy?

they'll saw off your head

kidney problems?

"let's take a look" is the last they said

open your chest up wide

jabbing their needles inside

plunge into a void unknown

it's your life they stole

blood drenched hands pass before you

and life comes to an end

your jugular is slashed and vocals taken out

then your thrown into the garbage bin
