Miss Lucy had some leeches
Her leeches liked to suck
And when they drank up all her blood
She didn´t give a-
Funny when the doctors
Had locked her in her cell
Miss Lucy screamed all night that they
Should go to bloody-
Hello to the surgeon
With scalpel old and blunt
He´ll tie you to the table
Then he´ll mutilate your
Come, it´s nearly teatime
The lunatics arrive
The keepers bleed them all until
There´s no one left a-
Lively little rodents
Are eaten up by cats
We´re subject to experiments
Like laboratory-
Rats, I´ve dropped a teacup
How easily they break
I´m on my hands and knees until
I pay for mis-
Take off all your clothing
We´ve only just begun
We have no anesthesia
It´s eighty-forty-
One thing we should tell you
Before you try again
The tests are all invented by
A lot of filthy-
Mentally hysteric
She´s failed the exam
Don´t bother telling Lucy for
She doesn´t give a-
Damn that nitrous oxide
For when you can´t escape
They say the surgeons oft commit
A murder or a-
Razor blades are rusty
And not a lot of fun
So when they try to amputate
Your legs you´d better-
Run and fetch the chemist
A patient´s feeling sad
She´s been in chains for ages
And she isn´t even-
Madness is a nuisance
And no one is immune
Your sister, mum, or daughter
May become a raving-
Lunatics are dangerous
And doctors are obeyed
They also go together
Just like toast and marma-
Ladies are like children
With brains the size of squirrels´
Let´s give clitoridectomies
To all the little-
Girls are helpless treasures
That daddies must protect
So lie upon the table
For the doctors to in-
Speculums are super
And stirrups all the rage
So spread a lady´s legs and put her
Back into her-
Cage of naked crazies
The surgeon´s here to bleed
The doctors are all learned men
And some can even-
Reading can be risky
For women on the verge
It only did us worlds of good
To poison, leech, and-
Purging is a penance
Phlebotomy´s a chore
No need to sterilize the tools
We never did be-
´fore the night is over
Before you go to bed
They´ll take a hammer and a nail
And jam it in your
Headstones in the courtyard
And statues in the park
Are not for the insane
Just leave them rotting in the
D-A-R-K
