Gordon: Here I sit in the middle of the room,
I don't throw a fit,
And I don't start crying.
Nurses flit as they fiddle in the room.
It's a damn charade that I can't abide.
Froggy came, froggy went,
I resent his appearance.
Slicing veins, tricky sht!
That is what he said!
Fact remains I could soon be dead.
In the middle of my gloom, in the middle of my fright,
In the middle of my room, in the middle of the night.
Mimi: Here I stand in the middle of the road,
Gordon: In the middle of the room,
Mimi: And I'm waiting for a car,
Gordon: And I'm waiting for a shot.
Mimi: To come along and kill me.
Gordon: Nurse, please!
Mimi: People ask why I'm standing in the road
Gordon: I'm sitting in the room.
Mimi: And I say because,
Gordon: I'm afraid of what I've got.
Mimi: I'm frightened he will die.
Gordon: I'll die.
Gordon and Mimi: Kill me please, straight ahead, make me dead, get it over with.
Mimi: I just called to tell you every thing's gonna be alright.
Gordon: Ma, you sound foolish.
Mimi: Mother will protect, mothers gonna fix things, anything that's wrecked, mothers gonna make things-
Gordon: Mother! please, say goodbye,
Ma a heart to heart.
When I die, you can't fall apart.
Mimi: What a stupid thing to say,
Rather stab me with a knife,
What an ignorant display,
In the middle of your life,
The middle of
Your, in the middle of your
Gordon: It is not the middle of my life, mother!
I'm dying!
Mimi: You are too young to die
I will see you tomorrow.
