Like A Surgeon Lyrics By Weird Al Yankovic

    i finally made it through med school
    somehow i made it through
    i’m just an intern
    i still make a mistake or two
    i was last in my class
    barely passed at the institute
    now i’m trying to avoid yeah i’m trying to avoid
    a malpractice suit

    hey like a surgeon
    cuttin’ for the very first time
    like a surgeon
    organ transplants are my line

    better give me all your gauze nurse
    this patient’s fading fast
    complications have set in
    don’t know how long he’ll last
    let me see that iv
    here we go time to operate
    i’ll pull his insides out pull his insides out
    and see what he ate

    like a surgeon hey
    cuttin’ for the very first time
    like a surgeon
    here’s a waiver for you to sign
    woe woe woe

    it’s a fact i’m a quack
    the disgrace of the ama
    cause my patients die yeah my patients die
    before they can pay

    like a surgeon hey
    cuttin’ for the very first time
    like a surgeon
    got your kidneys on my mind

    like a surgeon ooh like a surgeon
    when i reach inside
    with my scalpel and my forceps and retractors
    oh oh oh oh woe oh
    ooh baby yeah
    i can hear your heartbeat
    for the very last time
