  • Well I can't breathe
    I can't swallow
    Here today
    Gonna be back tomorrow

    Lyin' in back
    With your heart attack
    In the front seat
    With Pete Pete Pete

    Red light running
    Drag me in
    Move the seat back
    It's Saturday night

    Take me down -- hospital
    Take me down -- hospital

    Wrap me up
    Throw me out
    Jockey the phones
    Fill out these forms

    Take off your shirt
    Where does it hurt?
    Get outta them slacks
    Outta them slacks -- cut the belt

    Take me to -- hospital
    Take me to -- hospital
    Take me down -- hospital
    Take me down -- hospital

    Oh. Oww. Oww. no-ho-ho.

    I don't want to
    Ride no car
    Makin' love
    In my own backyard

    Take me to -- hospital
    Take me to -- hospital
    Take me down -- hospital
    Take me down -- hospital
    Hospital

    I don't want to
    Die before my time
    Already used
    Eight of my lives (3x)

    Take me to -- hospital
    Take me to -- hospital
    Take me down -- hospital
    Take me down -- hospital Writer/s: PAUL WESTERBERG
