The Lyrics

When a sadistic dentist such as you
Sees an old masochistic patient like me
I'm in need of just one thing now, pal

Long, slow root canal
Long, slow root canal
Long, slow root canal

When a shiny fast drill such as yours
Meets an eager white tooth such as mine
Don't say no, I wouldn't be fair

Somewhere, somehow
I will sit in your chair

So, Doctor, who knows just how much I enjoy
The pain you inflict upon me?
If I'm a good boy then do I get a prize?
Some candy, like Rolo or Spree?

No, no, no, no, no, don't tell me I must go
Doctor let me stay, I really love you so
Don't make me leave, we're not done, old pal
Long slow root canal
Long slow root canal
Long slow root canal

No, no, no, no, no, don't tell me I must go
Doctor let me stay, I really love you so
Besides the next guy will make you plant food, pal
Long slow root canal
Long slow root canal
Long slow root canal
