"Nurse's Office" lyrics - MELANIE MARTINEZ

Don't cut me, punch me, just let me go
Into the nurse's office where I float away
I'm pale as the loose-leaf paper they grow
From howling out all my lungs in the snow

[Pre-Chorus:]
Yeah, I'm coughing
I'm bleeding, band-aids won't heal it
'Cause they hate me, so I'm fakin'
All-ll this so they ta-ake me

[Chorus:]
Take me home
Give me that pink slip of permission
This is all
I'm tired of wishing I was ditching
Ooh, ohh, ooh

"Teacher, can I sit right there?
This bitch behind me is cutting my hair"
"No, just sit your ass down at the chalkboard and stare"
I faked up a seizure and left outta there

[Pre-Chorus:]
Yeah, I'm coughing
I'm bleeding, band-aids won't heal it
'Cause they hate me, so I'm fakin'
All-ll this so they ta-ake me

[Chorus:]
Take me home
Give me that pink slip of permission
This is all
I'm tired of wishing I was ditching
Ooh, ohh, ooh

[Instrumental break]

[Chorus:]
Take me home
Give me that pink slip of permission
This is all
I'm tired of wishing I was ditching
Home, all
