Doctor Doctor (feat. Shawn Harris) Lyrics
[shawn harris, "doctor dumaya"]
welcome to my humble abode
please don't mind the mess
just nest yourself down comfortable
let the doctor do the rest
dear ghost you look white as a sheet
just have yourself a seat
open wide and say 'ahhhhh'
let the doctor take a peek
now i must admit i knew you'd come
a boy and his love
eloped to save her from disease
wash your hands of her blood
i don't want to alarm you but you certainly are ill
stricken with a sickness deadly enough to kill
even the strongest man would drop dead where he stands
i urge that we make haste if you understand the chance
now what you got ain't no quick fix
it ain't no common cold
what you need is a bona fide doctor's miracle
now the thing about miracles
is that they don't grow on trees
they don't fall from the sky
you need a doctor like me
lucky for you you found me
so the rest should be no fuss
but before we get to saving lives
there's a few things to discuss
now i'm sure you're wondering what's in it for me
surely i would not perform these miracles for free
i'm not asking for a lot, it won't cost you a dime
i just want the princess here with me 'til the end of time
i promise to take care of her
or rather she'll take care of me
for the rest of her life in the dark
fulfilling doctor's fantasies
[greta salpeter, " princess anhura"]
i can't do this
[thomas dutton, "adakias"]
but you must, princess!
[princess anhura]
sign my life away?
[adakias]
it's the only way
trust me i know
how this must go
just do what the doctor says
[aaron weiss, "narrator"]
he mixed elixers and filters, pried scrolls and read excerpts
he spoke in foreign phonetics, and read runes from ancient relics
stirred ointments with potions, and unctions with doses
he whisked it until smoke rose and seeped into her nose...
the illness had relinquished, the doctor had fixed it
the cleansing accomplished, their love was free to flourish
but before it could sink in, the front door was kicked in
standing in its place was pallis, driven by malice
he had barged in to challenge adakias, to prove their love
their word wouldn't be enough, pallis needed it in blood...

I do believe that after "I urge that we make haste" it says "If you understand the chance" :)

it sounds more like "I urge that we make haste if you otta' stand a chance". makes more sense.
Now that I think about it, you're probably right. it does sound more like that.
This is easily the best song on the album; Harris is absolutely brilliant in this song. I'd go so far as to say it's Disney-quality.
haha yeah its up there with "poor,unfortunate souls" lol
after he says "you need a doctor like me" he says "and there ain't any, see?"
it's in a whisper, but very noticeable especially with earphones or headphones.
I hear somethiing like "but It aint gonna be that easy" instead O_O
I hear somethiing like "but It aint gonna be that easy" instead O_O
It's "I fear we must make haste if you are to stand a chance."
It doesn't even sound like Shawn Harris :(
NGL, the picture of Doctor Dumaya scared the hell out of me when I first saw it. :|
