Trident Medical Center Blues
About this track
Fiction written and performed in the blues tradition of death bed songs... From my Album: "Mad Ramblings Of A Novelty Beatnik" (April 2026) Lyrics: The machinery drones All my bad habits They now live in my bones This hospital room view Is much more beautiful Than anything has a right to I'm dreaming of home And all the roads on which I'll never go Ohh, you can pay your dues Live to see all the prophecies All come true Trident Medical Center blues You wonderful well wishers And the flowers The bed sitter in my darkest hours I wish I could go back in time I'd change so many things in my life I feel I need to atone Every man lives and dies alone (yeah) Judge me on all the love that I've shown You can pay your dues Live to see all the prophecies come true Trident Medical Center blues Catch up with you Give me one more hour Give me the power To climb the tower From which I will never come down I'll never come down You can pay your dues Live to see all the prophecies All come true Trident Medical Center blues Are you my Angel of doom? Are you my Angel of doom? You can pay all your dues Live to see all the prophecies Come true Trident Medical Center blues...
