Chemo Limo- Regina Spektor
Intro: / – (2x)
/ / /
I had a dream- crispy, crispy Ben-jamin Franklin
/
Came o-ver and baby-sat all four of my kids
/ / /
Then in my dream, I told the doctor off
He said, “If you don’t want to do it, then you don’t have to do it”
He said “The truth is, you’ll be okay anyway”
/ / /
Then, in my dream, crispy, crispy Ben- jamin Franklin and the doctor
Went and had a talk with my boss
/ / /
Something about insurance policies
They kept the door closed at all times
I couldn’t hear or see
When they came out, they said “You’ll be okay anyway”
And I smiled ‘cause I’d known it all the while
No thank you, no thank you, no thank you, no thank you
I ain’t about to pay for this shit
I can afford chemo like I can afford a limo
And on any given day, I’d rather ride a limousine
No thank you, no thank you, no thank you, no thank you
I ain’t about to die like this
I can afford chemo like I can afford a limo
And besides, this shit is making me tired
Is making me tired, is making me tired
You know I plan to retire someday
But mama gonna go out in style, go out in style
This shit is making me tired
Is making me tired, is making me tired
Mama gonna go out in style, go out in style
/ / /
When I woke up, the kids were being quiet
I knew it was a dream
Right away I called the limousine company
/ / /
Then I got dressed, I dressed the kids as well
The limousine pulled in and we piled in
/ / /
The driver, he asked which way we were headed
I said “Sir, let’s just go west” and he listened obediently
Sophie only wants to listen to radio BBC
Michael sat on my knees and whispered to me all about the meanies
Jacqueline was being such a big girl with her cup of tea
Looking out of the window
And Barbara, she looks just like my mom
Oh my Barbara, she looks so much like my mom
No thank you, no thank you, no thank you, no thank you
I ain’t about to pay for this shit
I can afford chemo like I can afford a limo
And on any given day, I’d rather ride a limousine
No thank you, no thank you, no thank you, no thank you
I ain’t about to die like this
I can afford chemo like I can afford a limo
And besides, this shit is making me tired
Is making me tired, is making me tired
You know I plan to retire someday
But mama gonna go out in style, go out in style
This shit is making me tired
Is making me tired, is making me tired
Mama gonna go out in style, go out in style
/
Style. Style. Style. Style.
