Love's Institution - Madrugada

Midnight in your love’s institution

Hungry as a hawk in my bed

Sleeping now would be the only solution

Nurse come shaking pills

Out of my head

I go walking in your love’s institution

Pass the candles and the skeletons and the loons

I see these things but I can’t come to no conclusion

Second lane for their corridors and their carpeted rooms

This man comes up to me and says

«Ah, do you wanna sniff some glue?»

I say: «I have some things to do

I got some people to see

Got some things to attend to»

He says: «If you don’t wanna sniff some glue

— Then, then you’re not you, and I don’t know who I’m talkin' to»

I say: «Get out of here!»

«I gotta go see, ah, I gotta go see you-know-who»

He shouts: «I warned you, many times, about the doctor!»

— «He conspires with the insects and the rain

He keeps a nurse in the closet

And now and then he brings her out and then he fucks her»

I said: «I'm going down to see the doctor anyway»

And then I turned around and I walked down the gate

Next thing I see is two girls

With their left hands in a sling

They start waving at me

But I have no idea, so they come walking up to me

I say: «Do I know you?

What do you want?»

They say, they say: «Nothing»

Guy at the record store said

«Go hang out at the hospital

'Cause this here at the hospital is the place to be!»

I say: «Really,"they say «Yeah»

I say «Really, really I gotta go see the doctor»

When I get there they say

The doctor has opened practice in the Caribbean sea

I say;

«What good is a hospital if there’s no electric light and there’s no

doctor?»

Girl at the front desk says

«Bother someone else with that, bother someone else, not me»

Midnight in love’s institution

Hungry as a hawk in my bed

Going to sleep now

That would be a good solution

Nurse comes shaking pills out of my head

Nurse comes shaking pills out of my head

My head

In your love’s institution

Hungry as a hawk in my bed
