Walter Becker - Medical Science lyrics

My man stanley Suave but manly Taking cover from the mark within Now he's hiding Pretty soon he's sliding Looking for a lonely heart to take refuge in Down the alley My gal sally A little bruised and battered maybe from a couple times before Hold her steady You know I think she's ready To climb into the ring and do it all once more Does it hurt when I do this Can you laugh when I go like this All right keep it down This one's cool for maybe one more round Just look for big pieces when we sweep up tonight boys Nobody's going to blame you Scratch 'em right off that list You know medical science is helpless Helpless in a case like this I know you're gonna thank me later For giving this one a miss 'cause medical science is helpless Helpless in a case like this Ivory eddie Half dead already But too dumb to lie down or even let a brother know Trouble's cruising You know ed's still using Never known for pa**ing on a chance to just say "yo" Little leroy Eddie's homeboy Still too wet behind the ears to know his right from his wrong And what big e's sporting Little lee is snorting Guess ed stopped on his way down to drag the kid along And all the jivea**es and the true believers The bullsh** givers and receivers Here today tomorrow gone To the triage tent in the great beyond Wherein the angel tangoes with the infidel Normally I'd be angry Normally I'd be pissed But medical science is helpless Helpless in a case like this Better make mine a double Serve it up with a twist 'cause medical science is helpless Helpless in a case like this Nobody's gonna blame you Scratch 'em right off the list Medical science is helpless Helpless in a case like this I know you're gonna thank me later For giving this one a miss 'cause medical science is helpless Helpless in a case like this Normally I'd be angry Normally I'd be pissed But medical science is helpless Helpless in a case like this
