[Verse 1]
[D]Onc[Gm]e I l[G]ov[D]ed s[A]uc[D]h a shattering physician,[Gm]
quite the best -looking [A]doctor in the [D]state.
He looked after my physical condition,
[A]and his bedside manner was great.
[D]When I gaze [Bm]up and see [D]him there [Gm]above me,
[A]looking less like a doctor than a
[D]Turk,
[A]I w[D]as tempted to whisper, do you l[Gm]ove me,
[A]or do you [Gm]merely [A]love your [D]work?
He said my bronchial tubes were in trance,
my epiglottis filled him [A]with glee.
He simply [D]loved my larynx, and went wild [A]about my pharynx,
but he [D]never said he loved me.
He said my epidermis [A]was [D]dolly,
and found my blood vessel was [A]pussy.
He went through [D]wild ecstasy when [A]I showed him my lymphatic,
[G]but he never said [A]he loved [D]me.
And though, [G]doubt, it was [C]not [Cm]very smart of me,
I [G]kept on a [D]-rackin' [E]my soul to [A]figure out why he [D]loved every part [A]of me, and yet not [G]me as a [A]whole.
With my eso[D]phagus, he [A]was rav[D]aged,
enthusiastic to a degree.
[A]He said it was jus[D]t enormous[A], my [D]appendix was[A] eno[G]rmous,
[D]but he [G]never said [A]he loved [D]me.
He said my cerebellum was brilliant,
and my cerebrum far from
[A]NG.
I know he [D]thought a [F#]lot of [A]my medulla oblong[G]ata,
but he [A]never said [D]he loved me.
He said my maxillaries [A]were [D]marvelous,
and found my sternum stunning too.
[A]He did a double hur[D]dle when I s[A]hook my pelvic gir[D]dle,
[B]but he never [E]said he [Em]loved[A] me.[D]
He seemed amused [G]when he [C]first made a test
[Cm]of me [G]to further [D]his medical arm[E]s.
Yet [A]he refused when he fixed [D]up the rest
of me [A]to cure that [Gm]ache in my [A]heart.
I know he [D]thought my pancreas perfect,
and for my spleen was keen as could [A]be.
He said of all his sweeties,
I'm the sweetest diabetes
[B]But he never [A]said he loved [D]me
