Louden Swain - Cast Off lyrics

I got something in my head A plate of steel Oh yeah they said I was almost dead I got something in my eye I'd scratch it But the cast has my good hand inside. She's a pretty little catch I like the way her hair Fits right inside her nurse's cap Her breath smells like gum Juicy, juicy fruit If my jaw wasn't wired I'd have me some And nothing good happens to me Yeah nothing good happens to me Baby I'm shakin' when you take care of me But it's alright Yeah it's alright Maybe I'll make it out We'll just have to see It's alright, yeah it's alright The sun comes up and I'm alive She holds the door As the throng of visitors arrive And when it's dust she brings me treats The jello's old and warm But her face is young and oh so sweet And nothing good happens to me Yeah nothing good happens to me Baby I'm shakin' when you take care of me But it's alright Yeah it's alright Maybe I'll make it out We'll just have to see It's alright, yeah it's alright I will recover in the same way I learned to ride my bike I was five! The day it finally arrives The cast comes off and I am no longer mummified And there she is but there she goes Another patient rolls in just as the door swings closed And nothing good happens to me Yeah nothing good happens to me Baby I'm shakin' when you take care of me But it's alright Yeah it's alright Maybe I'll make it out We'll just have to see It's alright, yeah it's alright
