Addressing inequities in inadequate techniques
Surgical procedures, involved and unique
My knife is a brush for a sanguine palette
Create a masterpiece with some bone and a malletHysterectomies for those who are insane
Severing meninges to balance the brain
Trepan the skull for a nervous disorder
Tapping the vein to expunge fever
Excoriate bubos with brand and cleaver
Our professors believe we're out of orderSuffering spinalectomies, their bellies, jaundiced
Fusty minds, cowardly, you're gutless
Feint of heart and loathly with enfeebled stomachs
Lily-livered and rafty, you're gutlessWithout the risk, there's no reward
We must experiment on our wards
To elevate our science
We will operate in defianceCommitted to impugning progress
Judicial officials are made to egress
Our critics are given the axe
The needs of many outweigh the few
Profficide required for us to continue
The research of cold, dead factsRestraining Philistines facing final justice
Exscinding to the spine, you're gutless
Liberating omentum of an Aristarchus
Usefulness just begun, you're gutlessWithout the risk, there's no reward
We must experiment on our wards
To elevate our science
We will operate in defianceMoral objectors will lose their tongues
And guts and bones and brains and teeth and lungs
Till they're gutless
