Not The Doctor Lyrics

[Verse 1: Alanis Morissette]
I don't wanna be the filler
If the void is solely yours
I don't wanna be your glass
Of single malt whiskey
Hidden in the bottom drawer
I don't wanna be a bandage
If the wound is not mine
Lend me some fresh air
I don't wanna be adored for what
I merely represent to you
I don't wanna be your babysitter
You're a very big boy now
I don't wanna be your mother
I didn't carry you in my womb for nine months
Show me the back door

[Chorus: Alanis Morissette]
Visiting hours are nine to five
And if I show up at ten past six, well, I
Already know that you'd find some way
To sneak me in and oh
Mind the empty bottle
With the holes along the bottom
You see, it's too much to ask for
And I am not the doctor
(Oh, I am not the, oh)

[Verse 2: Alanis Morissette]
I don't wanna be the sweeper
Of the egg shells that you walk upon
And I don't wanna be your other half
I believe that one and one make two
I don't wanna be your food or the light
From the fridge on your face at midnight, hey
What are you hungry for?
I don't wanna be the glue that holds
Your pieces together
I don't wanna be your idol
See, this pedestal is high
And I'm afraid of heights
I don't wanna be lived
Through a vicarious occasion
Please, open the window

[Chorus: Alanis Morissette]
Visiting hours are nine to five
And if I show up at ten past six, well, I
Already know that you'd find some way
To sneak me in and oh
Mind the empty bottle
With the holes along the bottom
You see, it's too much to ask for
And I am not the doctor
(Oh, I am not the, oh)

[Verse 3: Alanis Morissette]
I don't wanna live on someday
When my motto is last week, and I
I don't wanna be responsible
For your fractured heart and it's wounded beat
And I don't wanna be a substitute
For the smoke you've been inhaling
What do you thank me
What do you thank me for?

[Chorus: Alanis Morissette]
Visiting hours are nine to five
And if I show up at ten past six, well, I
Already know that you'd find some way
To sneak me in and oh
Mind the empty bottle
With the holes along the bottom
You see, it's too much to ask for
And I am not the doctor
(Ooh, I am not the, oh)
