Harvey Bodine died at 11:09
And he left behind a miserable wife

But at 11:14 his heart came back on the screen
Thanks to that defib machine
He came back to life

But those five minutes were heaven
A peace unlike he'd ever known
As he came back to the living he thought
"Please God, don't make me go back to life"

They told him what happened
How that green line had flattened
Harvey just started laughing
He said "You're telling me I died?!"

He thought about that woman, how she treated him for years
All the yelling and the screaming, and the nagging and the tears
In a way it wasn't really all that bad
When he lost his life

Those five minutes were heaven
A peace unlike he'd ever known
Now he was back with the living
And he found himself reaching for the phone

He called his lawyer, he called his priest
Told them about they restarted his heart
How his wedding vows were technically
"Til' death do us part"

"You'll probably judge me, and so be it
But you know boys, here's how I'd see it..."

"But at 11:14 my heart came back on that screen
Thanks to that defib machine
I've come back to life!"
