Phil's Transplant - Patterson Hood
Ever since the transplant
Phil has been a different man
My how Phil's changed
Is all we ever hear
In the checkout line
At work and home
And Phil's wife has been so lonely
His life was saved in skin and bone
But his soul just ain't the same
Ever since the transplant
When he holds me it feels so different
His wife calmly explained to us
Over coffee at the little grey diner
He suddenly don't like chocolates
Or jazz or foreign movies
Just watch the weather channel
And the wall street journal
I changed the oil in my car
And once put in a new carburetor
A new carberator
I still have the same refrigerator
And food that I put in
It still tastes the same
But suddenly Phil's changed
Ever since the transplant
Phil has been a different man
Even his hand shake ain't the same
And the doctors try to tell us
It's all in our heads
Just our imaginations
But what do they know
What do they know
