Mr. Ambulance Driver - The Flaming Lips

Waiting for the ambulance to come

Hoping that it doesn’t come too late

Hearing the sirens in the distance

Hold on, help is on the way

Mr. Ambulance Driver

I’m right here beside her

And though I live, somehow I’ve found

Mr. Ambulance Driver

I’m not a real survivor

Wishing that I was the one that wasn’t gonna be here anymore

The one that isn’t here anymore

The one that isn’t here anymore

Oh, we can’t trade places

Our lives are strangely our own

Mr. Ambulance Driver, tell me

For everyone that dies, someone new is born

Mr. Ambulance Driver

I’m right here beside her

And though I live, somehow I’ve found

Mr. Ambulance Driver

I’m not a real survivor

Wishing that I was the one that wasn’t gonna be here anymore

The one that isn’t here anymore

The one that isn’t here anymore

(More sirens, indecipherable radio chatter)

Mr. Ambulance Driver

I’m right here beside her

And though I live, somehow I’ve found

Mr. Ambulance Driver

I’m not a real survivor

Wishing that I was the one that wasn’t gonna be here anymore

The one that isn’t here anymore

The one that isn’t here anymore

Mr. Ambulance Driver
