Here I lie in my hospital bed
Tell me, Sister Morphine, when are you coming round again?
Oh, and I don't think I can wait that long
Oh you see I'm not that strong
The scream of the ambulance is sounding in my ears
Tell me, Sister Morphine, how long have I been lying here?
What am I doing in this place?
Why does the doctor have no face?
Oh, I can crawl across the floor
Can't you see, Sister Morphine, I'm trying to score.
Well it just goes to show things are not what they seem-
Please, Sister Morphine, turn my nightmares into dreams.
Oh can't you see I'm fading fast?
And the big shot will be my last.
Sweet cousin *******, lay your cool cool hands on my head
Oh c'mon Sister Morphine, better make up my bed
Cos you know and I know in the morning I'll be dead
You can sit around and watch all the clean white sheets stained red.
