Album: No Parole From Rock'n'Roll (1983)

General Hospital


I awoke in a room that was occupied by those about to die
For my sleep was disturbed by the sound of old mens cries for help
What's this place what the hell am I doing here
What's happened to me and I'm wondering what kind of state my mind and body's in

[Bridge]
Be calm please lay back
We will help you rest for a while

[Chorus]

And I yelled "No you don't I'm not going to sleep"
I'm just gonna get my body out of here
I pushed the bottle down away from my face
But felt the needle stab like a spear

As my legs started shaking
The room revolved around my aching head
And the floors rushing up just to greet me
Laying there on my back as the ceiling flies away and from me
Was I finally losing my hold on reality

[Bridge]
Be calm take this pill
We will help you rest for a while

[Chorus]
