HOSPITAL
(Sing to the tune of "Home on the Range")
Oh, give me a bed, just a hospital bed and let me sleep all
through the night.
Whatever you do, please don't wake me at two, let me sleep til
the dawn's early light.
First Chorus:
Sleep, glorious sleep, don't wake me at three for a shot.
Can't you see, my dear nurse, that I'm just getting worse
when you wake me at three on the dot?
How often at night do you turn on my light for a temp'rature
check or a test,
Then I lie here and toss, getting angry and cross, will I ever
get some rest?
Second Chorus:
Sleep, glorious sleep, don't wake me to wa-ash my face,
Let me lie here asleep in a slumber so deep, or I'll
get out of this place.
You woke me at two, now I'm pleading with you, go away and
just leave me alone,
I don't want to count sheep, I just want to sleep, if I need
you I'll call on the phone.
Third Chorus:
Sleep, glorious sleep, don't wake me at three or at four,
Let me sleep through the night til the dawn's early light,
and I'll never come here any more!
