Yellow Daffodil Lyrics

I got the news just the other day

The kind of thing nobody wants to hear the doctor say

He said sit down there if you will

I'm going to tell you about a yellow daffodil

He said don't you know about one in four

Gonna have this stranger, knocking on the door

Wonder why you're feeling ill?

Are you wondering about a yellow daffodil

Doctor doctor, can you save my life

This thing took my sister, and it took my wife

Better sharpen up or maybe better put away the knife

Oh doctor doctor, can you save my life

Something wrong with my personal biology

Gotta talk to the man down in oncology

I can't really relax until

I know all I can about a yellow daffodil

What's this stuff they're running through my veins

I feel it in my arm, wrapping around my brain

You say its going to ease the pain

I can't believe that we're using it still

That's why I wear a yellow daffodil

Doctor doctor can you save my life

This thing took my sister and my cousin

And it took away my wife

Better sharpen up or maybe better, put away the knife

Oh don't know which way to go, can you save my life

I think that nurse is some kind of an angel, the way she holds my hand

I know she's only doing her job, but it feels like she understands

I don't want to become a lesser man

Who'd want to swallow such a bitter pill

Oh, yellow daffodil

I wish they'd tell me this is all some kind of a joke

Cause I don't drink, and I don't even smoke

Okay maybe once in a while I have a little toke

You know it helps me chill

While I wear a yellow daffodil

All this talk about the radiation beams

Got to get my head around, what all the jargon means

You say the battle's going to be uphill

You say its all about a yellow daffodil

You told me once, and you told me twice

I'm going to have to, have to pay a price

And I ain't talking about the bill

No, I'm talking about a yellow daffodil
