Song lyrics

[Chorus:]
Doctor, fetch the anaesthetist
Fetch the anaesthetist,
I want to go under the knife,
I believe in this.
Fetch the anaesthetist
Fetch the anaesthetist,
I want to go under the knife, I believe...

You fucking spanner,
Just a cog in the industrial complex,
You shed the blood for the conflicted...
You parasite,
You're playing god and you don't care who it affects,
You suck the blood of the afflicted...
You suck the blood of the afflicted...

Illness is not an indulgence which you should pay for,
Nor is it a crime for which you should be punished
For this conviction I would endanger my health...

"Shut it (oi!), just consume,
Crave riches and lust for fame"
No you won't see us participating in that game,
Keep your twisted take on success,
'Cos all I really want is
What's beating in your chest...

[Chorus:]
Doctor, fetch the anaesthetist
Fetch the anaesthetist,
I want to go under the knife,
I believe in this.
Fetch the anaesthetist
Fetch the anaesthetist,
I want to go under the knife, I believe...

We drink to your health,
But just to inform, this round's on you,
And every day you roll the dice,
We drink to your health,
We capitalise on your condition,
Bad luck? You pay the price.
Bad luck? You pay the price.

[Chorus:]
Doctor, fetch the Anaesthetist
Fetch the anaesthetist,
I want to go under the knife,
I believe in this.
Fetch the anaesthetist
Fetch the anaesthetist,
I want to go under the knife, I believe...

You sold us short,
You will not profit off our health,
Step the fuck back.
