Won't come back again.

I'll be falling out of bed
with a huge lump in my head
And soon
all my memories will be gone

So a surgeon looks a me
And my pictures on a screen
In a few weeks his buzz saw sings the song.


I'll tip my hat to a new kind of cancer.
Even though there still is no answer
Smile and grin about the things I can't do now.
I picked up my guitar and played
as badly as yesterday.
And I'll get on my knees and pray..
It won't come back again.

They want a central line
up my behind
so the medicine gets
where it needs
And the tumor on the right
is still the tumor on the right.
although it seemed to grow longer overnight.

I'll tip my hat to a new kind of cancer.
Even though there still is no answer
Smile and grin about the things I can't do now.
I picked up my guitar and played
as badly as yesterday.
And I'll get on my knees and pray..
It won't come back again.
I'll tip my hat to a new kind of cancer.
Even though there still is no answer
Smile and grin about the things I can't do now.
I picked up my guitar and played
as badly as yesterday.
And I'll get on my knees and pray..
It won't come back again.

I"ll have my family put me aside
sometimes I feel too much trouble alive
No I know that the doctors and stats don't lie.
Do they?
I'll tip my hat to a new kind of cancer.
Even though there still is no answer
Smile and grin about the things I can't do now.
I picked up my guitar and played
as badly as yesterday.
And I'll get on my knees and pray..
It won't come back again.


Meet the new tumor...
same as the old tumor...
