lyrics

I worked at the hospital emergency room
When you came in with a gunshot wound
And I fell for you
In your bloodstained dress

Yes, I confess it was love at first sight
And as a Registered Nurse I fight
To save the lives of every girl and guy
That's wheeled through the door
For you, I fought a little more

You, you pulled through,
You said it was a boy in blue
Who had done this to you, then there was a video, and everybody knew,
But everybody also knew that this happens every day, and it was hardly news

But I couldn't cope, I clutched my stethoscope so tight it broke
Almost revoked my Hippocratic oath
I thought if that cop comes in shot through the throat, you know,
I might just be a little slow

We were crowned king and queen
And the Renaissance theme
Was a hit with your relatives; fifteen lutes and tambourines
Played us down the aisle, and your smile was the best I'd ever seen

Then we danced the night away, Geoff played Daloy Politzei
I drank too much champagne, I nearly sprained my ankle tripping on your train
Then there was you and there was me, and it's true, ACAB,
But you whispered "me and you, mister, we're stronger than any cop could ever be."
There was you, and there was me.
