Lyrics
7 a .m. at the receiving bay
Grab your box cutter, boys
Let's see what the hospitals sent us today
Well, the coffee in the depot pot is black as diesel oil
Standing in my work boots on this cold cement and soil
Fifty brown cardboard boxes piled up against the wall
Shifting by the clinics from the springtime to the fall I slice the packing
tape and hear the plastic peanuts pop
Another mystery package in the independent shop
Here's an ultrasound transducer rolled in twenty layers thick
With a handwritten note that says, please fix this real quick
Oh, I got the bubble wrap blues on the dip -hot floor
Pop a thimplek bubbles out behind the bay door
Petal steel crying twin fiddles roar
Another crust monitor shipped to the shore
The independent bow may get some running fine
Saving all the money on the healthcare line
Two -step with the box cutter, pop it all day
Make them broken, get to shine and roll away
Inside of box 11 was a telemetry case
With a note from
Nurse Loretta that put a smile on my face
The doctor dropped it in the suit but swear he never did
We needed back by
Friday for an emergency kit I chuckled to myself and logged the work order
in line Gotta clean off the noodles and make that circuit shine
Oh, I got the bubble wrap blues on the deadpot floor
Poppin' them plus bubbles out behind the bay door
Petal steel crying, twin fiddles roar
Another crust monitor shipped to the shore
The independent biomed gets them running fine
Saving all the money on the healthcare line
Two -step with the box cutter, pop it all day
Make them broken, get to shine and roll away
Box number 50 unpacked
Time to head to the solder bench
Play it out, boys
