Not the Doctor |
| I don’t want to be the filler if the void is solely yours |
| I don’t want to be your glass of single malt whiskey |
| Hidden in the bottom drawer |
| I don’t want to be a bandage if the wound is not mine |
| Lend me some fresh air |
| I don’t want to be adored for what I merely represent to you |
| I don’t want to be your babysitter |
| You’re a very big boy now |
| I don’t want to be your mother |
| I didn’t carry you in my womb for nine months |
| Show me the back door |
| Visiting hours are 9 to 5 and if I show up at 10 past 6 |
| Well I already know that you’d find some way to sneak me in and oh |
| Mind the empty bottle with the holes along the bottom |
| You see it’s too much to ask for and I am not the doctor |
| I don’t want to be the sweeper of the egg shells that you walk upon |
| And I don’t want to be your other half, I believe that 1 and 1 make 2 |
| I don’t want to be your food or the light from the fridge on your face |
| At midnight, hey |
| What are you hungry for |
| I don’t want to be the glue that holds your pieces together |
| I don’t want to be your idol |
| See this pedestal is high and I’m afraid of heights |
| I don’t want to be lived through |
| A vicarious occasion |
| Please open the window |
| Visiting hours are 9 to 5 and if I show up at 10 past 6 |
| Well I already know that you’d find some way to sneak me in and oh |
| Mind the empty bottle with the holes along the bottom |
| You see it’s too much to ask for and I am not the doctor |
| I don’t want to live on someday when my motto is last week |
| I don’t want to be responsible for your fractured heart |
| And it’s wounded beat |
| I don’t want to be a substitute for the smoke you’ve been inhaling |
| What do you thank me |
| What do you thank me for |
| Visiting hours are 9 to 5 and if I show up at 10 past 6 |
| Well I already know that you’d find some way to sneak me in and oh |
| Mind the empty bottle with the holes along the bottom |
| You see it’s too much to ask for and I am not the doctor |
