Lyrics

"Now's the time for you"
He said
"To open up so I can see"
He cut a piece
Of skin for me
I never had to wait in line
He never seemed to know it was me
As he stood over me
Wide awake and clenching his teeth…
I thought
Maybe
Just maybe it was time to see a new doctor
Caked all over
What a mess

Correct:
Coming back from surgery
Coming up on seventeen
Some kind of helpless teen
But maybe it's a part of me

Coming back from surgery
Coming up on seventeen
I don't remember how I looked
Before he got to me

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

Coming up on twenty-three
Cut a piece of skin for me
Never had to wait in line
He never seemed to know it's me

As he's standing over me
Wide awake and clenching teeth
"Now it's time" he said
"For you to open up so I can see."

Caked, all
Caked all over. (x4)

Ohh, oh, ohh, oh
Oooooooo
Ohh, oh, ohh, oh

Coming up on twenty-three
Cut a piece of skin for me
Never had to wait in line
He never seemed to know it's me

He's standing over me
Wide awake and cleching teeth
"Now it's time for you" he said
"To open up so I can see."

Caked, all
Caked all over. (x4)
