I came to see you up there in intensive care
They had handcuffed you to your bed
There were tubes going into you and out from you
Bright white gauze bandages at your head
I am a mole
Sticking his head above the surface of the earth
I am a mole
Sticking his head above the surface of the earth
And they said "Lights out"
And it was lights out
And they gave you your medication
I know what you want and you know what I want

I am a mole
Sticking his head above the surface of the earth
I am a mole
Sticking his head above the surface of the earth
Out in the desert we'll have no worries
Out in the desert just you and me
I came to see you up there in intensive care
Out in the desert we'll live carefree
I am a mole
Sticking his head above the surface of the earth
I am a mole
Sticking his head above the surface of the earth
They had handcuffed you to your bed
There were tubes going into you and out from you
Bright white gauze bandages at your head
I am a mole
Sticking his head above the surface of the earth
I am a mole
Sticking his head above the surface of the earth
And they said "Lights out"
And it was lights out
And they gave you your medication
I know what you want and you know what I want

Out in the desert we'll live carefree
I am a mole
Sticking his head above the surface of the earth
I am a mole
Sticking his head above the surface of the earth

I always thought the title/chorus was the key to the song. Yes he's visiting a friend in the ICU who'se handcuffed. Clearly in trouble with the law. And John (narrator) is 'the mole' he's fishing for information.
