letra de bad heart - fruit punch
i hold it in my hand
this isn’t what i planned
no
a bill in the mail
one trip to the doctor
i cannot believe
it cost me one thousand dollars
my amniotic sack
didn’t cut me no slack
it was dealing with twins
its was feeling that pinch
it was getting real sick
— it broke
i wasn’t ready
i was
13 weeks too early
had to get out in a hurry
everything became a flurry
and my heart wasn’t done
now my
tricuspid’s just a bicuspid
just a bit rusted
just a bit busted
cardiology is a word i learned fast
get inside of me take a look at that valve
i became a new kind of citizen
when they marked me with a pre-existing condition
put the leads upon my chest
bully me for every test
ekg and x-ray vest
how much money?
take the rest
the problem’s not my health
it’s the cost
got no wealth
nothing else that can help with the lack of funds
i tried to build a budget but you break it up
scr-ping at the bottom of a snake pit
deny me aid cause of my roth ira
“you should pay for the present with the future”
“pray we don’t pick another loser”
“re-place a bandaid with a suture”
they’ve got no patience for my
dilation
run another test for
information
things are looking stressed i’ll
need a replacement
of course i give my doc total respect
but my thoughts remain on his paycheck
i steam inside the hospital room
a gleam is bouncing off your his shoes
tell me, how much do they pay you
how much did those cost?
oops, was i going on the offense
did i get a little intense
did i say something uncouth?
take a jab at a bad truth?
you know i get a little incensed
when i think about the expense
if you think that i’m real rude
i don’t care
lifting weights i feel troubled
will the sides start to crumble?
when the size starts to double
will i die, turn to rubble?
seldom do i think about the day when it all stops
when my pulse drops
to zero
only when i get a palpitation am i feeling anxious
only when i get a new information do i lose my
resolve
you solve
a problem i can’t see
something deep inside of me
take a look at my heart
it’s breaking
it’s getting worse
you’re taking
all that i earn
what will it cost
for you
to save me?
cut a red line
i’ll take it
give me a deadline
but i can’t pay it
every headline
says it’s breaking
waiting in the breadline
we’re all saving
every single
nickel and dime
you know it feels like a crime
i can’t deny that you saved me
nevertheless it’s too high when i pay thee
cannot believe how much this bad heart cost me
it breaks my heart
