E
have you ever had a dream
that your favorite baby's drowning
F
and you grab him by his sweater sleeve and pull him up on to the ground and
E
you can hear the water slosh around inside his tiny gut
F
push his belly up and down but he can't cough the water up
E F
suddenly a flood comes out his mouth till there is nothing left inside of him
he's empty now
there isn't even one small breath
----
F G C
and he goes limp in your arms
F G
all the people's mouths are moving
C
all you hear are car alarms
F G C
and you wake up and start to cry
F G C
I will lose my shit if even one more person I know dies
F G C
so please don't die
----
F C
My mom's sick she's in a hospital bed
F C
I've got a word for all you ghosts in her head
F C
and all you skeletons in her closet
F
leave her alone
C
leave her alone
F C
leave her alone please
F G C
because my mom needs you gone
F G C
my mom needs you gone
F G C
as long as she is haunted she'll never get strong
F G C
my mom needs you gone

G C
you traded all your paper clips for a soap dish that way
G C
your best friend's rubber ducky wouldn't slip and slide away
G C G
but he traded his rubber duck for a cigar box to place your paper clips in
G7
Mr Hooper came to say
F G C
Oh my dear friends Bert and Ernie
F G C
here's a little something for each of you from me
F G C
here are your paper clips and here's your rubber ducky
F G G7 [let ring]
how could I ignore such selfless generosity
----
F C
the human body's made up of good and bad bacteria
F C
but the antibiotics and the antibacterials are killing all the good ones
F C
and the bad ones just get stronger and become super infections
F C
it's harder to destroy them and it's harder to detect them
F C
and there's something in her blood
F C
and there's something in her leg
F C G
and there's something in her brain
----
F C
my mom's sick she's in a hospital bed
F C
I've got a word for all you ghosts in her head
F C
and all you skeletons in her closet
G
leave her alone
G
leave her alone
G
leave her alone
G
leave her alone
G
leave her alone
G
leave her alone

leave her alone please
F G C
because my mom needs you gone
F G C
my mom needs you gone
F G C
as long as she is haunted she'll never get strong
F G C
my mom needs you gone
F G C
my mom needs you gone
