You've no veins
You limped into the ward roundLike you were waking from gen surg nights
Ptosis strategically dipped your eyelid down
Your shirt stained with cinamon scone
You had Tramal on your drug chart
As you watched yourself convulse
And all the girls dreamed that you're in a coma
You're in a coma, and
You've no veins, you probably were an IV drug user
You've no veins (you've no veins!), I'll bet you were an IV drug user
Weren't you? weren't you???
You had me several years ago
When I was still in fourth year
Well, you said that I made such a pretty doc
And that you would never leave
But you self discharged against advice
And some advice came from me
I had some dreams they were phlebs who took blood tests
Phlebs who took blood tests, and
You've no veins, you probably were an IV drug user
You've no veins (you've no veins!), I'll bet you were an IV drug user
Weren't you? weren't you??? Weren't you? weren't you???
I had some dreams they were phlebs who took blood tests
Phlebs who took blood tests, and
You've no veins, you probably were an IV drug user
You've no veins (you've no veins!), I'll bet you were an IV drug user
Weren't you? weren't you???
Well, I hear you went up to the CCU
And your heart naturally failed
Then you threw your ST segments up
To see the triple 8 team of the day
Well, you're where you should be all the time
And when you're not, you're with
Some psychiatry team or the life of an intern
Life of a intern, and
You've no veins, you probably were an IV drug user
You've no veins (you've no veins!), I'll bet you were an IV drug user
Weren't you? weren't you??? Weren't you? Weren't you now???
You've no veins, you probably were an IV drug user
You've no veins, you probably were an IV drug user ...

Hey~
That is a depressing poem~!
Some pt u met 3 yrs ago showed up again?
Hey that's cool, i know the tune now :) "You're so vein" :D Ugh what can i say hospitals are crap, medicine is crap, of course it's depressing. Saying people come to get better makes me feel like a liar, saying people come to die make me feel like a scare-monger, so i might as well shut my mouth, but if i do the stupid patient will be even more ignorant and then blame me for not telling them, which they'd do anyway even if you do tell them, so i'd say something and they refuse to listen whatever it is, so why on earth come to hospital you arseholes? Just go crawl under a rock and die. Clearly i had a bad day so feel free to cause me pain by cannulating me. Ooops, i don't have any veins either.
What??? You have poetic talent now?
