They gave me a test to make me the best that I could be They knew all along that there was something wrong with me We picked out a spot and made a hole Wire and glass and stainless steel Now I can imagine how I'd feel I got a new heart I got a new heart I got a new heart I got a new artificial heart It's not a real heart It's not a real heart It's not a real heart It is a real artificial heart There's blood on the bed but here in my head I'm feeling fine It's easy to sleep when I'm not buzzing all the time So funny the way I was before Once I was blind but now I see Once I was him but now he's me I got a new heart I got a new heart I got a new heart I got a new artificial heart It's not a real heart It's not a real heart It's not a real heart It is a real artificial heart You're happy again, I nod and pretend to think it through I don't need to think at all if I don't care for you It's not an emergency for me I look at the walls and they go clear I cover my eyes and disappear I got a new heart I got a new heart I got a new heart I got a new artificial heart It's not a real heart It's not a real heart It's not a real heart It is a real artificial heart
