Morphine Song

[00:00.07] Listen to my heartbeat
[00:02.87] Yeah, all fall down
[00:05.53] Someone help me
[00:07.30] Off of the ground
[00:09.13] Listen to my heartbeat
[00:10.90] Yeah, all fall down
[00:13.62] Someone help me
[00:15.43] Off of the ground
[00:17.24] Nelson and Starr
[00:20.84] He's got ten grandkids
[00:22.61] She's the third missus
[00:27.26] He grooves around
[00:29.08] Intensive care
[00:31.76] Strutting his stuff
[00:35.39] He's got a perfect mullet
[00:38.97] Hanging down his back
[00:42.55] And Starr walks in
[00:45.28] Gives a little wiggle
[00:47.94] Makes old Nelson grin
[00:50.62] He tucks me in
[00:52.52] Touches my feet
[00:54.38] "Hey buddy, you know
[00:56.17] You got a slow heartbeat"
[00:58.84] Listen to my heartbeat
[01:06.06] Yeah, listen to my heartbeat
[01:13.25] And the marching band
[01:15.05] Plays along
[01:19.50] Plays the morphine song
[01:22.26] On the charity ward
[01:25.91] Yeah, the marching band
[01:29.57] Plays its song
[01:32.23] Yeah, all fall down
[01:34.98] Someone help me
[01:36.71] Off of the ground
[01:39.44] Yeah, all fall down
[01:43.02] Someone help me
[01:44.81] Off of the ground
[01:46.66] And opposite me
[01:48.46] Brenda the alkie
[01:50.25] Coughs so deep
[01:54.81] It's the drugs
[01:56.67] And the drink
[01:58.42] It could happen to anyone
[02:00.29] Sure makes me think
[02:05.63] And the bed beside her
[02:07.42] Is full of cables and leads
[02:10.17] Nobody visits
[02:13.79] Nobody grieves
[02:18.20] Listen to my heartbeat
[02:20.91] Yeah
[02:26.42] Listen to my heartbeat
[02:35.42] Nelson and Starr
[02:38.11] He's got ten grandkids
[02:40.89] She's the third missus
[02:42.66] Starr takes some blood
[02:47.16] Out of my arm
[02:49.84] Rolls me over
[02:51.61] Just like that
[02:57.07] Listen to my heartbeat
[02:59.81] Slow but clean
[03:01.62] While Brenda the alkie
[03:03.44] Looks so mean
[03:05.24] They wheel her out
[03:07.01] She starts to cry
[03:08.85] "If I don't get better
[03:11.58] I'm gonna die
[03:13.33] I'll go cold turkey
[03:15.16] Till I'm clean
[03:16.95] I'll go to jail
[03:18.79] But you get the morphine"
[03:22.32] Listen to my heartbeat
[03:26.86] Lalalala, lalalala
[03:29.67] Yeah, listen to my heartbeat
[03:33.25] Lalalala, lalalala
[03:36.86] And the marching band song
[03:43.10] Plays in the morgue
[03:44.97] At the charity ward
[03:47.63] Yeah, the marching band
[03:53.00] Plays its song
[03:55.77] Yeah, all fall down
[03:57.55] Someone help me
[04:00.22] Off of the ground
[04:02.10] Listen to my heartbeat
[04:03.95] Yeah, all fall down
[04:05.71] Someone help me
[04:09.37] Off of the ground
[04:11.11]
