Girlfriend In A Coma

by Mojo Nixon

on Whereabouts Unknown (1995)

Girlfriend's in a coma, I know it's serious
Girlfriend in a coma, I know it's serious
There were times when I could have murdered her, oh yeah
I would do anything not to have to hurt her

Let me ask ya'
Do you really think she'll pull through?
Do you really think she'll be alright?
Do you really think she'll pull through?
Tonight

Girlfriend's in a coma, I know it's serious (girlfriend in a coma)
Girlfriend's in a coma, I know it's serious, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (girlfriend in a coma)

There were times when I could have strangled her
But I don't want nothin' to go ahead and mangle her

Do you really think she'll pull through?
Do you really think she'll be alright?
Do you really think she'll pull through?
Tonight

Girlfriend in a coma, I know it's serious, oh yes I do (girlfriend in a coma)
Girlfriend in a coma, girl's makin' me delirious (girlfriend in a coma)

There she was lyin' in a coma
I could smell the hospital aroma
She was lyin' there like a loaf of bread
I said, "baby baby baby, are you dead?"
And she said...nothin' at all

Now most of you all out there are thinkin',
"Mojo, you're an insensitive idjit galoot!
Whatever feelin' you got in your body
It's so small you could ram it up a gnat's ass
and it'd look like a BB in a boxcar!"
Yeah, well, don't blame me
Blame the writer of this song, Morrissey

Yeah, don't blame me, blame Morrissey
Y'know that fruitcake that sings in The Smiths?
Don't blame me, blame Morrissey
Ah, he's celibate
Yeah well, I, Mojo Nixon, am the anti-Morrissey
I, Mojo Nixon, am the anti-Morrissey
Can't you see, can't you see
That I am the anti-Morrissey
Ah, 'cause I'm a meat eater

Yeah, I like my meat, and I like it sweet
And I like to get laid, and I always get paid
Hey, Morrissey, kiss my big hairy butt

Girlfriend in a coma, I know it's serious (girlfriend in a coma)
Girlfriend in a coma, girlfriend in a coma (girlfriend in a coma)
I gotta girlfriend in a coma
Girlfriend in a coma, girlfriend in a coma
Girlfriend in a coma, came from Tacoma
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Girlfriend in a coma
Girlfriend in a coma

So, you're pretty sure, Doc, she's not gonna come out of it?
Okay, thanks
