After the Operation Lyrics
After the operation
I was in a lotta pain
But I look fondly on it
Just passin' all the days in a haze
Layin' on the couch
And watchin' TV
After the operation
I didn't have a care
I'd spend whole afternoons
Just layin' there
While I stared
At things in the room
That made me think
After the operation
I ate a lotta junk
I'd drift off and fall asleep
And have these little dreams
Where I'm feeling
Back to my old self again
I was in a lotta pain
But I look fondly on it
Just passin' all the days in a haze
Layin' on the couch
And watchin' TV
After the operation
I didn't have a care
I'd spend whole afternoons
Just layin' there
While I stared
At things in the room
That made me think
After the operation
I ate a lotta junk
I'd drift off and fall asleep
And have these little dreams
Where I'm feeling
Back to my old self again

Says E of this song:
"In 2003 we did 80 shows in a few months. We went around the world twice and I kept losing my voice and getting sick. When I got back home I discovered that I had developed a giant cyst in my sinus and had to have surgery. It was a brutal experience and recovering seemed like a long haze of pain. But once I was better, I realized that I kind of missed those days of laying on the couch not worrying about all the usual stuff."
