Intro:
us4
VERSE 1:
The sun is a light bulb
A candle's a treat
The curtains stay closed now
On my little retreat
And I'll only take medicine
If it's followed by sweets
A sickly pink liquid
That puts me to sleep
CHORUS 1:
s
My head beats a better way
sb
Tomorrow a better day
VERSE 2:
And I can watch TV
While I'm wrapped up in bed
And mother makes sure that
I'm watered and fed
My best from school will
Come over and stare
At me in my bubble
Of germified air
CHORUS 2:
s
My head beats a better way
sb
Tomorrow a better day
BRIDGE 1:
When I'm asleep the smoke fills me
I feel the heat, my illness leaves me

VERSE 3/ OUTRO:
The sun is a light bulb
A candle's a treat
The curtains stay closed now
On my little retreat
But after a while
The noise from the street
Is making me wish I
Was back on my feet
ENJOY!
