Private Practice (Dr. Sharp, Emilie) Songtext
von Emilie Autumn

DOCTOR SHARP
You know I have a private practice
It isn′t very far from here
And while I am a little slammed
If you would like I may be willing
Willing to give you some time

You see I think I know your problem
I think you ought to let me help
For, if you don't, I really fear
That your condition will get worse, dear
So much worse, dear
Let me give you my time
Just a little time

Time for us to be alone
On our own and talk
Otherwise you′ll stay right here
Where, let's be clear
You can't even walk


So, as I′ve said, my private practice
I′ve noticed you don't care for noise
But what I think you′ll really like, my dear
Is that it's very quiet
Oh so quiet
Let me give you my time

Now, you′re aware that you're bipolar?

EMILIE
Painfully aware

DOCTOR SHARP
And you′ve been medicated?

EMILIE
Like a horse

DOCTOR SHARP
You're witty

But I suspect there's something more
And though I′ve really shouldn′t tell you
There. I've told you
Let me give you my time
Just a little time

It′s my responsibility, you see, Emilie
To do what I can
As a psychiatrist I swore an oath, to us both
I'm that kind of man


EMILIE
What if he′s right?

DOCTOR SHARP
What if I'm right?

EMILIE
But no one′s told me this before

DOCTOR SHARP
Well if your doctors were any good, you wouldn't be here, would you?

EMILIE
I know this illness is my curse to wear
My cross to bear
But what if there's more?

DOCTOR SHARP
What if there′s more?

EMILIE
What if there′s more?

DOCTOR SHARP
What if there's more?
What if there′s more?

Let me help you, Emilie
Let me fix you, Emilie

INTERCOM
Doctor Sharp, you're needed upstairs—a patient wants restraining.

EMILIE
I know what he′s doing now
Now I see his little plan
Doctor Sharp is not my friend
He is just another man
