Mandy Goes To Med School

The Dresden Dolls

I've been feeling dull as a coat hanger
Pretty as a picture of a patient on a fresh iv
Giddy as a gangbanger with a set of sutres where his magic johnson ought to be

Yes, I'll tell you just the thing you need to be the next big thing
Let's start in with a test of your intelligence and zest for recovering
Up and down and roundabout and out the back and keep your mouth shut
Tight the lights are staying out
But no sweat I've got aim like a mack truck

Guess how many fingers,
Ok guess how many more I can fit there
Guess right get the toaster
But you know miss guessing gets you nowhere

I've been baking cakes for the enemy
I've been dying to find out the hard way
I've been taking friends to the alleyway
Two down now but who's counting anyway?

Yes, I'll can do everything you need from out of my new SUV
All my work is guaranteed to last the length of your recovery
Put away those plies honey
Trust me coz I know the options
How about a nine-month long vacation and a two-foot coffin..?

I've been getting close and intimate
Some close calls but I'm getting into it
In some states they say you can burn for it
But I'll burn that bridge when I get to it..

It's not a bad thing -
To get professional.
It's got a nice ring -
Mandy goes to med school.

I've been taking tips from the government
I've been getting damn good in hiding it
Fifty bucks a month ought to cover it
Two down now but who's coming over so

And if you show up and I am unavaiable
My partner Brian would love to take care of you..
He is a nice man.
Thoroughly reliable.
He's in a rockband.
And he goes to med school..
