about

Tells the story from a terminally ill newborn child's point of view about the Doctor wanting to keep him/her on life support, but the parents want euthanasia, however the newborn obviously doesn't get a say in it.

lyrics

Incubator resurrection
Just what the doctor ordered
But what can I say? What can I say?

Mental side effects of rebirth
Dragging me down to hell
But what can I say? What can I say?

Mother wants to flip the switch
Pumping diesel into my brain
But what can I say? What can I say?

The Doc's flipping a coin
The others babble as his conscience
But what can I say? What can I say?

They can say but what can I say? (x4)

It's like friendly homicide
They think I'm braindead
But Caesar thumbs up the Doctor in his mind

He decides I should stay
But they think I should go away
They say I'd be healthier in the afterlife

But what can I say?

They can say but what can I say? (x4)

What can I say....?
