I Don’t Want To Die

I don’t wanna die in the hospital

No I don’t wanna die in the hospital

No I don’t wanna die in the hospital

You gotta take me back outside

I don’t wanna hear all those factory sounds

Looking like the girl in the sleeping gown

I don’t wanna die in the hospital

You gotta take me back outside

Can you make a sound to distract the nurse

Before I take a ride in that long black hearse

I don’t wanna die in the hospital

You gotta take me back outside

Help me get my boots on

Help me get my boots on

Help me get my boots back on

Help me get my boots on

Help me get my boots on

Help me get my boots back on

I gotta go, go, go

Cause I don’t have long

Yeah I don’t give a damn what those doctors say

I don’t wanna spend another lonesome day

I don’t wanna die in the hospital

You gotta take me back outside

They don’t let you smoke and you can’t get drunk

All there is to watch are these soap operas

I don’t wanna die in the hospital

You gotta take me back outside

Can you get this tube out of my arm

Morphine in my blood like a slow sad song

I don’t wanna die in the hospital

You gotta take me back outside

Help me get my boots on

Help me get my boots on

Help me get my boots back on

Help me get my boots on

Help me get my boots on

Help me get my boots back on

I gotta go go go

Cos I don’t have long

Is there still a world at my windowsill

All there ever was I remember still

I don’t wanna die in the hospital

You gotta take me back outside

Don’t know when it’s day or when its night

All I ever see are florescent lights

I’m not gonna die in this hospital

You gotta take me back outside

They give me all these flowers & big balloons

But I’m not gonna stay in this little room

I’m not gonna die in the hospital

You gotta take me back outside

Are the stars still in the sky

Is that fat moon on the rise

Feel the earth against my feet

As the cold wind calls for me

I ain’t gonna die in the hospital

No I ain’t gonna die in the hospital

No I ain’t gonna die in the hospital

You gotta take me back outside

I ain’t gonna die in the hospital

No I ain’t gonna die in the hospital

No I ain’t gonna die in the hospital

You gotta take me back outside
