I had a dream —
crispy, crispy Benjamin Franklin came over, and
baby-sat all four of my kids

Then in my dream
I told the doctor off
He said, «If you don't wanna do it,
then you don't have to do it»

He said, «The [bad word] is, you'll be OK, anyway»

Then in my dream
crispy, crispy Benjamin Franklin and the doctor
went and had a talk with my boss

Something about insurance policies;
They kept the door closed at all times,
I couldn't hear or see

When they came out, they said,
«You'll be OK, anyway»

And I smiled 'cause I'd known it all the while 

No thank you, no thank you,
No thank you, no thank you!
I ain't about to pay for this [bad word] I can't afford chemo like I can't afford a limo,
and on any given day I'd rather ride a limousine

No thank you, no thank you,
No thank you, no thank you!
I ain't about to die like this
I can't afford chemo like I can't afford a limo,
And besides, this [bad word] is making me tired,
it's making me tired, it's making me tired
You know I plan to retire someday,
but I'm-a gonna go out in style,
go out in style

This [bad word] is making me tired,
it's making me tired, it's making me tired!
I'm-a gonna go out in style,
go out in style

When I woke up,
the kids were being quiet
I knew it was a dream,
right away I called the [bad word] 
Then I got dressed,
I dressed the kids as well
The limousine pulled in
and we piled in

The doctor, he asked,
which way we were headed
I said, «Sir, let's just go west»,
and he listened obediently

Sophie only wants to listen to radio BBC 
Michael sat on my knees and whispered to me
all about the meanies
Jacqueline was being such a big girl
with her cup of tea, looking out of the window
And Barbara, she looks just like my mom
Oh my Barbara, she looks so much like my mom

No thank you, no thank you,
No thank you, no thank you!
I ain't about to pay for this [bad word] I can't afford chemo like I can't afford a limo,
and on any given day I'd rather ride a limousine

No thank you, no thank you,
No thank you, no thank you!
I ain't about to die like this
I can't afford chemo like I can't afford a limo,
And besides, this [bad word] is making me tired,
it's making me tired, it's making me tired
You know I plan to retire someday,
but I'm-a gonna go out in style,
go out in style

This [bad word] is making me tired,
it's making me tired, it's making me tired!
I'm-a gonna go out in style,
go out in style

Style...
