Here I lie in my hospital bed Tell me, Sister Morphine, when are ya coming round again? Oh, And I don't think I can wait that long Oh, you see that I'm not that strong The scream of the ambulance is sounding in my ears Tell me, Sister Morphine, how long have I been lying here? What am I doing in this place? Why does the doctor have no face? Umm, I can't crawl across the floor Can't you see, Sister Morphine I'm just trying to score Well, it just goes to show things are not what they seem Tell me, Sister Morphine, can my nightmares turn into dreams? Oh, can't you see I'm fading fast And that this shot will be my last Sweet Cousin Cocaine, lay your cool hand on my head Come on Sister Morphine, will you make up my bed? 'Cause you know and I know in the morning, I'll be dead And you can sit around, and you can watch All the clean white sheets stained red
