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 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?
