Bellevue

and I’ve been here 5 days
and I got 5 stitches on my face
this ain’t where I choose to be
but they say that it ain’t up to me
and I ain’t got much to complain
I get 3 meals and regular cigarette breaks
I tell ‘em what I’m supposed to say
and maybe tomorrow I can leave

welcome to Bellevue, didn’t they tell, you you’re not getting out of here?
welcome to Bellevue, didn’t they tell you, you’re not going anywhere?

I’m one day shy of 2 weeks
and this place is starting to get to me
I’m not a person I’m
a case
and I got shoes but no shoelace
and alternating sessions of pills and electricity
I had my first visitor yesterday
I didn’t want them to leave

welcome to Bellevue, didn’t they tell, you you’re not getting out of here?
welcome to Bellevue, didn’t they tell you, you’re not going anywhere?

see that guy over there’s been here 5 years
but that ain’t gonna be me I swear
it’s good to talk about your problems, it’s good to talk
but I’m afraid once I get started, they’ll never shut me up

these walls are paper thin
they let their secrets slip
whatever madness sleeps next door tonight
will be in my bed the next
and 5 stitches turned into 10
and I donÕt know how long itÕs been
I have my last visitor yesterday
I donÕt know when IÕll see anyone again

welcome to Bellevue, didn’t they tell, you you’re not getting out of here?
welcome to Bellevue, didn’t they tell you?
welcome to Bellevue, didn’t they tell you, you’re not going anywhere?
you’re not getting out of here?
