Flatline

Flatline, I’ve got a round-trip ticket to the after-life Gonna follow the tunnel of light to the other side Flatline, I’ll be taking mental notes, So, I can write a book about all I know Flatline, I wonder what will be waiting for me Flatline what a trip it’s going to be Flatline, do you think the “Stones”, can start me up Or maybe I’ll need a real doctor, with electric shock Flatline, to the other side Giving me a preview, of the after-life Flatline Flatline, just a buzz on the machine A flat little straight line, yep, that’ll be me Visiting past relatives, till they bring me back Don’t wait to long, to get my, heart a beating and sinus rhythm intact Flatline, what a trip it will be Flatline, it’s weird, like a crazy déjà vu Back from the dead, is not the term I’d like use Just Flatlined, in the technical sense of the way Now knowing where, we are all headed one day
