There's nothing to do here, some just whine and complain, in bed at the hospital 
Coming and going, asleep and awake, in bed at the hospital 
Tell me the story of how you ended up here, 
I've heard it all in the hospital 
Nurses are fussin' , doctors on tour somewhere in 
India I got one friend laying across from me 
I did not choose him, he did not choose me 
We've got no chance of recovery 
Sharing hospital joy and misery, joy and misery, joy and misery 
Put out the fire boys, don't stop don't stop 
Put out the fire on us 
Put out the fire boys, don't stop don't stop 
Put out the fire on us 
Bring your buckets by the dozens, bring your nieces and your cousins, come put out the fire on us 
Vietnam, fishing trips, 
Italian opera 
Vietnam, fishing trips, 
Italian opera 
I got one friend laying across from me 
I did not choose him, he did not choose me 
We've got no chance of recovery 
Sharing hospital joy and misery, joy and misery, joy and misery 
The joy, the joy, the joy misery 
Put out the fire boys, don't stop don't stop 
Put out the fire on us 
Put out the fire boys, don't stop don't stop 
Put out the fire on us 
Bring your buckets by the dozens, bring your nieces and your cousins, come put out the fire on us
