On the Mysore road highway, cool wind in my hair…
Warm smell of fresh rain, rising up through the air…
Up ahead in the distance, i saw a lorry headlight
Broke my leg when i crashed into him, had to be admitted that night!

The ward boy stood in the doorway, gave an evil grin
I was thinking to myself, this cant be heaven, this must be hell
He put me on the stretcher, and showed me the way…
there were screams in the casualty, thought i heard them sayyy

Welcome to the hospi-tal Victoria
such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
such a lovely case!
Plenty of beds at the hospi-tal Victoria
Any time of year, you can find me here!

Ward boys definitely twisted, he threw me on the minor OT beds
He got a lot of lazy lazy nurses, he calls friends
How they sleep in the duty room, only awake interns left
Some sleep to remember, some sleep to forget!

So i wake up a sister, pleease bring me my file
She said ‘asshole no ones woken me up since, nineteen sixty nine!’
And still those screams are coming from far away,
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say…

Welcome to the hospi-tal Victoria
such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
such a lovely case!
Barely surviving at the hospi-tal Victoria
What a nice surprise, SDDs alibis!

Blood stains on the ceiling, the cold IV lines
intern said- we are all just prisoners here, we have no choice
In the PGs chambers, they gathered for the feast
Interns ringing them all night, But they just wont press receive!

Last thing i remember, i was running for the door
I had to find the passage back to the place i was before
Relax said the watch man, ‘you havent given me my fee’
You can DAMA any time you like,
BUT YOU CAN NEVER LEAVE!
