E5
have you ever had a dream

that your favorite baby's drowning
       F5                                   C5        
and you grab him by his sweater sleeve and pull him up on to the ground and
E5
you can hear the water slosh around inside his tiny gut
F5                              C5
push his belly up and down but he can't cough the water up

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
C5           G5            A5
and he goes limp in your arms
A5
all the people's mouths are moving
C5
all you hear are car alarms
C5            G5               A5
and you wake up and start to cry
C5              G5            A5
I will lose my shit if even one more person I know dies
   C5      G5     A5
so please don't die


A5                       C5
my mom's sick she's in a hospital bed
A5                          C5
I've got a word for all you ghosts in her head
A5                       C5
and all you skeletons in her closet
G5
leave her alone
G5
leave her alone
G5                C5 
leave her alone, please
A5             G5         C5
because my mom needs you gone
A5     G5         C5
my mom needs you gone
A5                G5       C5
as long as she is haunted she'll never get strong
A5     G5         C5
my mom needs you gone


you traded all your paper clips for a soap dish that way
your best friend's rubber ducky wouldn't slip and slide away
but he traded his rubber duck for a cigar box to place your paper clips in
Mr. Hooper came to say
'oh my dear friends Bert and Ernie
here's a little something for each of you from me
here are your paper clips and here's your rubber ducky
how could I ignore such selfless generosity?'

the human body's made up of good and bad bacteria
but the antibiotics and the antibacterials are killing all the good ones
and the bad ones just get stronger and become super infections
it's harder to destroy them and it's harder to detect them
and there's something in her blood
and there's something in her leg
and there's something in her brain

my mom's sick she's in a hospital bed
I've got a word for all you ghosts in her head
and all you skeletons in her closet
leave her alone
leave her alone
leave her alone
leave her alone
leave her alone
leave her alone
leave her alone, please
because my mom needs you gone
my mom needs you gone
as long as she is haunted she'll never get strong
my mom needs you gone
my mom needs you gone
my mom needs you gone
my mom needs you gone
