Lyrics

[Intro] And it's a song called "Not the Doctor" [Verse 1] I don't wanna be the filler if thevoidis solely yours Idon't wanna be your glass ofsingle malt whiskey hidden in the bottom drawer, and I don'twannabea bandage ifthe wound isnot mine Lend me some fresh air And I don't wanna be adored for what I merely represent to you, and I don't wanna be your babysitter, you're a very big boy now And I don't wanna be your mother, I didn't carry you in my womb for nine months Show me the back door [Chorus] Visiting hours are nine to five And if I show up at ten past six, well, I Already know that you'd find some way to sneak me in and oh Mind the empty bottle with the holes along the bottom You see, it's too much to ask for, and I Am not the doctor No I am not the No [Verse 2] And I don't wanna be the sweeper of the egg shells that you walk upon, and I don't wanna be your other half, I believe that one and one make two, and I don't wanna be your food or the light from the fridge on your face at midnight, hey What are you hungry for? And I don't wanna be the glue that holds your pieces together And I don't wanna be your idol See, this pedestal is high and I'm afraid of heights And I don't wanna be lived through a vicarious occasion Please, open the window [Chorus] Visiting hours are nine to five And if I show up at ten past six, well, I Already know that you'd find some way to sneak me in and oh Mind the empty bottle with the holes along the bottom You see, it's too much to ask for, and I Am not the doctor, oh I am not the No [Verse 3] And I don't wanna live on someday when my motto is last week, and I I don't wanna be responsible for your fractured heart and its wounded beat, and I don't wanna be a substitute for the smoke you've been inhaling, well What do you thank me What do you thank me for? [Chorus] Visiting hours are nine to five And if I show up at ten past six, well, I Already know that you'd find some way to sneak me in and oh Mind the empty bottle with the holes along the bottom You see, it's too much to ask for, and I Am not the doctor, oh I am not the No
