Surgical Star

Words by Mark L Berry & Music by Simon Ashby
Performed by Simon Ashby

 

LYRICS – Surgical Star (without a knife) – Capo 2nd fret (key A) – chord shapes – G, C, D

Simon Ashby

—

V1

Ten, nine, eight
Taxying on the slab
Then taking-off on time
But not to the skies
The first doc is on
As the other stands by
When his job is done
The star can shine

Chorus

The star of surgery
Is the one who holds the key
To re-awakening me
He’s the guarder of life
The surgical star
Without a knife

V2

While cruising steady
The anesthesiologist’s feats
Aren’t measured in miles
But in my heartbeats
Standing out of the way
In the back of the room
The anesthesiologist knows
He’ll be landing me soon

Chorus

The star of surgery
Is the one who holds the key
To re-awakening me
He’s the guarder of life
The surgical star
Without a knife

Bridge

To bring me back
To the world of the living
Through some gaseous concoction
That he’ll be giving
To dream so deep
While under the knife
While one doc cuts
The other guards my life

Chorus

The star of surgery
Is the one who holds the key
To re-awakening me
He’s the guarder of life
The surgical star
Without a knife
