the bad doctor

if you were anywhere near his door you saw it swing open and you heard the moon roar trying to yank herself right out of her orbit the whole natural world, painted red, just like a target it was a cold dark day with low clouds standing in the way and the stars jockeying for position on the slow thick morning of the death-dealing physician (oh yeah) x4 and you could feel his features in the air a wide smile and perfect hair he had complete control of the rising tides and a medicine bag hanging at his side it was a cold dark day with low clouds standing in the way and the stars jockeying for position in the flowing blue world of the death-dealing physician (oh yeah) x4 and the rain came down liike water from a faucet i saw him at the crossroads, but i never saw him cross it, one minute he was on this side, and the next he was be over on the other. so went his rounds, one sad patient after another. it was a cold dark day with low clouds standing in the way and the stars jockeying for position in the crushed velvet world of the death-dealing physician (oh yeah) x4 it was a cold dark day with low clouds standing in the way and the stars jockeying for position in the impossibly large office of the death-dealing physician (oh yeah) x4
