Incident in a Medical Clinic Songtext
von Rasputina

Quite unbelievably
I want someone to be sweet to me
When I′m in absolutely horrible pain.
Thank you for keeping this vigil, doctor,
These infections are becoming quite popular,
I never meant for it to turn out quite this way.

An antidote's been elusive,
The specialist can′t deduce if this is incurable.
Now the disease invades me,
The fever intensifies, see, I get delusional.

Some survive,
Some survive,
Some survive
Because of the way that they walk,
Because of the look in their eyes,
Look in their eyes.


"Almost everybody has... Has Snail Fever"
The doctor whispered in my ear.
"Some they treat feel better, some don't.
The cause is still unclear,
We're unable to treat you here."

Unwilling patients,
The treatments they said may discontinue.
Dangerous infections,
They stick you into superficial woulds.

Some escape
With their lives,
Some survive
Because of the way that they walk,
Because of the look in their eyes,
Look in their eyes.

Scratch an existing wound, open an old one.
It′s extraordinarily hard
Succumbing bone by bone,
Bone and bowel,
Heart and hand.
This disease pervades us all.
It can therefore manifest anywhere,
In anyone,
At any moment.


Doctor Bernstein, Bernstein!

Quite unbelievably
I want someone to be sweet to me
When I′m in absolutely horrible pain.
