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 shit!
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:
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 life.
Gordon:
It is not the middle of my life, mother! I'm dying!
