Miracle of Life

Wrapped herself around him like a tourniquet
 Cold October nights she'd wear his leather jacket
 Ah, now she's scared of taking a piss
 Can't be sure she's positive
 Made her an appointment, she was two months late
 The car they borrowed broke down before they got out of state
 Towed back into town, what a drag
 She's feeling sick, he's feeling bad
 Such is the miracle of life
 The essence of family is to sacrifice
 We could be done with it tonight
 The neighborhood doctor says it's sanitized
 Lay down on the hard, cold ground
 Crying's such a soothing sound
 Get cured with a coat hanger
 Girl, you're in America now
 Woke up in the morning in her cousin's bed
 Something don't look right, septic, infected and red
 Hot forehead like a frying pan
 From fever dreams of sweaty men
 Lay down on the hard, cold ground
 Crying's such a soothing sound
 Get cured with a coat hanger
 Girl, you're in America now

 Such is the miracle of life
 The essence of love is to sacrifice
 We could be done with it tonight
 The neighborhood doctor says it's sanitized
 Lay down on the hard, cold ground
 Crying's such a soothing sound
 Get cured with a coat hanger
 Girl, you're in America now
 Expired on a Sunday
 She was young and blonde
 Went right up to Heaven
 We're all children of God
