ONE MORE SPONTANEOUS PNEUMOTHORAX

 

Based on “I Don’t Want To Go On With You Like That” written by Elton John and Bernie Taupin
 
I’ve always had this problem with my lungs
For whatever reason they’re not tough enough
There’s a thing that happens deep inside
The last time it happened it was number five

When it happens I hear a low pitched thud
And then I feel a sharp pain in my lung
Then they have to find a chest tube that fits
And it feels like my ribs have done the splits

It’s one more spontaneous Pneumothorax
The second time my right lung has collapsed
Now my chest feels like it’s been hit with an axe
From one more spontaneous Pneumothorax

Why this happens I’ll never understand
Now we have got to make it re-expand
And all the physicians agree
It’s not the last time that they’ll see me

It’s one more spontaneous Pneumothorax
Another time my flipping lung’s collapsed
Now my chest feels like it’s been hit with an axe
From one more spontaneous Pneumothorax

Yes one more spontaneous Pneumothorax
The nurses all tell me just to relax
The depressing thing is I know I’ll be back
For one more spontaneous Pneumothorax

The doctors tell me that everything will turn out fine
But I’m starting to tire of the same old lines
My long skinny torso is the major cause of my plight
I’m sorry but it isn’t right

It’s one more spontaneous Pneumothorax…
