Miracle of Life

Miracle of Life Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Wrapped herself around him like a tourniquet
Cold October nights she’d wear his leather jacket
Ahhh, now she’s scared of taking a p**s
Can’t be sure she’s positive
Made her an appointment, she was two months late
The car they borrowed broke down ‘fore they got out of state
Towed back into town, what a drag
She’s feeling sick, he’s feeling bad

[Pre-Chorus]
Such is the miracle of life
The essence of family is to sacrifice
We could be donе with it tonight
The neighborhood doctor says it’s sanitized

[Chorus]
Lay down on thе hard cold ground
Crying’s such a soothing sound
Get cured with a coat hanger
Girl, you’re in America now

[Verse 2]
Woke up in the morning in a cousin’s bed
Something don’t look right, septic, infected and red
Hot forehead like a frying pan
From fever dreams of sweaty men
[Chorus]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Outro]
Expired on a Sunday
She was young and blonde
Went right up to heaven
We’re all children of god
