Artificial Heart |
| It’s a second hand story no one wants to hear |
| And it’s wet with blood, salted with tears |
| It’s black and white and red all over, happens all the time |
| This was something about an artificial heart |
| She lived in a sleepy town trailer home park |
| Where not many people go out after dark |
| Innocent helpless at 17, queen of every loser’s wet dream |
| Which brings us to our villain but a mother could love |
| He liked amputation and the Lord above |
| He kidnapped her on her way home from school |
| She lost her mind, he lost his cool |
| She didn’t tell him about the artificial heart |
| Then some kid found her head |
| Then an arm and a leg and you know the rest they said |
| The artificial heart it was still beating |
| With a needle and a thread they sewed on her head |
| She’s alive and well like she was never dead |
| She doesn’t remember the day she didn’t die |
| Or how everybody cried |
| She read a story in the paper how she was victimized |
| And you should have seen the look in her eyes |
| Her assailant was acquitted and as she read |
| I swear she laughed off her head |
