Regina Spector Chemo Limo Lyrics

I had a dream
Crispy crispy Benjamin Franklin came over
Baby-sat all four of my kids
Then in my dream
I told the doctor off
He said: "If you don't want to do it then you don't have to do it"
He said the truth is you'll be okay, anyway

Then in my dream
Crispy crispy Benjamin Franklin and the doctor
Went and had a talk with my boss
Something about insurance policies
They kept the door closed at all times
I couldnt hear or see

When they came out they said:
"You'll be okay, anyway"
And I smiled cause I'd known it all along.

No thank you no thank you no thank you no thank you
I don't have to pay for this s___
I couldn't afford chemo like I couldn't afford a limo
and on any given day I'd rather ride a limousine
No thank you no thank you no thank you no thank you
I ain't about to to die like this
I couldn't afford chemo like I couldn't afford a limo
And besides this s___ is making me tired
It's making me tired, it's making me tired
You know I plan to retire some day,
And I'm gonna go out in style
Go out in style
This s___ it's making me tired
It's making me tired, it's making me tired
I'm-a gonna go out in style
Go out in style

When I woke up
My kids were being quiet
I knew it was a dream right away
I called the limousine company
Then I got dressed
I dressed the kids as well
The limousine pulled in
And we piled in
The doctor he asked
Which way we were headed
I said: "Sir, let's just go west" and he listened obediently

Sophie only wants to listen to radio BBC
Michael sat on my knees and whispered to me all about the meanies
Jacqueline was being such a big girl with her cup of tea looking out of the window
And Barbara
She looks just like my mom
Oh my god, Barbara
She looks so much like my mom

No thank you no thank you no thank you no thank you
I don't have to pay for this s___
I couldn't afford chemo like I couldn't afford a limo
and on any given day I'd rather ride a limousine
No thank you no thank you no thank you no thank you
I ain't about to die like this
I couldn't afford chemo like I couldn't afford a limo
And besides this s___ is making me tired
It's making me tired, it's making me die
You know I plan to retire some day,
And I'm-a gonna go out in style
Go out in style
This s___ it's making me tired
It's making me tired, it's making me tired
I'm-a gonna go out in style
Go out in style

Style
Style
Style
Style
Style
Style
Style
Style

I had a dream
Crispy crispy Benjamin Franklin came over and
Baby-sat all four of my kids
I had a dream
Crispy crispy Benjamin Franklin came over and
Baby-sat all four of my kids
