This is by The Crash Test Dummies:

What is it that makes me just a little bit queasy?
There's a breeze that makes my breathing not so easy.
I've had my lungs checked out with x-rays
I've smelled the hospital hallways

Someday I'll have a disappearing hairline
Someday I'll wear pyjamas in the day time.

Times when the day is like a play by Sartre
When it seems a book burning's in perfect oreder----------
I gave the doctor my description
I've tried to stick to my prescriptions

Someday I'll have a disappearing hairline
Someday I'll wear pyjamas in the day time.

Afternoons will be measured out
Measured out, measured with.......
Coffeespoons and T.S. Eliot.

Maybe if I could do a play-by-play-back
I could change the test results that I will get back
I've watched the summer evenings pass by
I've heard the rattle in my bronchi...............

Yeah, I know it's self-indulgent :)

Elvis has left the building.................
