Cherry Blossom Clinic Lyrics - Electric Light Orchestra

Discovered that the papers have been signed 

To my bed I am confined 

Owing to my state of mind 

Special food for thought I must be fed 

The authorities have said I'm going off my head 

Suddenly from flowered skies 

Twenty thousand butterflies 

Glorify my bed... 

Turn from hot to very cool 

Though it seems incredible 

I could ride a bike around the moon. 

Cherry blossom clinic 

Is there any truth in what they say 

Cherry blossom clinic 

Lock me in and throw the key away 

In this sad position where I lie 

From the corner of my eye 

Callous friends just pass me by 

Doctor pays a visit 

Everyday I keep asking for my dad 

They must think I'm going mad 

Lift the blankets off my face 

Quick before I suffocate 

Trying hard to meditate 

Tell the people, "what a scene" 

Write a letter to the queen 

Asking her if she can come to tea 

Chorus 

Up above the sun is high 

Like a tea tray in the sky 

Helicopter lands upon my bed 

Phantom horses quickly fade 

Turning into lemonade 

Probably feel better when I'm dead 

Chorus
