Alanis Morissette - Not The Doctor Lyrics
I don't want to be the filler if the void is solely yours
I don't want to be your glass of single malt whiskey
Hidden in the bottom drawer
I don't want to be a bandage if the wound is not mine
Lend me some fresh air
I don't want to be your babysitter
You're a very big boy now
I don't want to be your mother
I didn't carry you in my womb for nine months
Show me the back door
Visiting hours are 9 to 5 and if I show up at 10 past 6
Well I already know that you'd find some way to sneak me in and oh
Mind the empty bottle with the holes along the bottom
You see it's too much to ask for and I am not the doctor
I don't want to be the sweeper of the egg shells that you walk upon
And I don't want to be your other half, I believe that 1 and 1 make 2
I don't want to be your food or the light from the fridge on your face
At midnight, hey
What are you hungry for
I don't want to be the glue that holds your pieces together
I don't want to be your idol
See this pedestal is high and I'm afraid of heights
I don't want to be lived through
A vicarious occasion
Please open the window
Visiting hours are 9 to 5 and if I show up at 10 past 6
Well I already know that you'd find some way to sneak me in and oh
Mind the empty bottle with the holes along the bottom
You see it's too much to ask for and I am not the doctor
I don't want to live on someday when my motto is last week
I don't want to be responsible for your fractured heart
And it's wounded beat
I don't want to be a substitute for the smoke you've been inhaling
What do you thank me
What do you thank me for
Visiting hours are 9 to 5 and if I show up at 10 past 6
Well I already know that you'd find some way to sneak me in and oh
Mind the empty bottle with the holes along the bottom
You see it's too much to ask for and I am not the doctor

One of those 90's album you remember getting, playing the shit out of, and still know every single word on the album front to back today.. even though you haven't heard it in YEARS !! <3
I need to send this to all of my friends.
Never could figure out this one never made it to radio. Over time, I came to the realization that the songs that do make it to the radio are chosen not by the listeners, but by executives.
Have you ever noticed, whenever a radio station plays a "new" song, and the "DJ" asks for listeners to call in a rate the song? Even wonder why a majority of "callers" "like" the new song?
Does anyone really think they play all callers on the air?
I knew it was all fake when the same person would "request" the same song, and they used the exact same words, as well as the "DJ". They essentially recorded the request into the lead-in of the song!
But you played one on weeds
LBP2 moon glitch lol
Just listened to a song from 2005 by South African artist Louise Carver: https://youtu.be/AEtnhml8SR8
It has exactly the same repetitive guitar melody! Any links between musicians? Any credits due and not given??
Laurence Nelson-Boudville...
Thinking of Jodie Whittaker.
💜💜💜💜💜💜😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
This has been my number 2 fav alanis song since I was 13... . I'm 35 now. Please sneak me in lol

Alanis and Liz Phair from the 90s. Avril Lavigne from 2000s. All these 3 female alternative pop rockers are great.

Shes just great
I forgot this song. Damn good music.
I don't want to be the filler if the void is solely yours
I don't want to be your glass of single malt whiskey
Hidden in the bottom drawer
I don't want to be a bandage if the wound is not mine
Lend me some fresh air
I don't want to be adored for what I merely represent to you
I don't want to be your babysitter
You're a very big boy now
I don't want to be your mother
I didn't carry you in my womb for nine months
Show me the back door
Visiting hours are 9 to 5 and if I show up at 10 past 6

so refreshing to hear songs about overcoming codependency. love her and her empowering lyrics
luv ala
She's so clever. She's going to be with God. Don't worry :)
The bitter sweet symphony life..
Just brilliant x
When it comes to female artist, for me, the sun rises and sets with Alanis
I finally got my own copy of the album, listened to the whole thing, heard this, and absolutely loved it! There's something about her voice and her lyrics that just makes me feel so free, and like there's somebody else who thinks kind of like I do.
SEW MEAN!
I’d marry herKneel and askFor her handHer mind her heart her love
Ugh this song. Still good. Still true.
favorite song.. my personaility
I can't believe this song doesn't have more views !
Love you Alanas Morasett! Great relatable lyrics!
Boy you fucked that all up. Huh?
I MISS THIS KIND OF MUSIC!!!
So do I
A mi me vale verga lo q te guste
It never went anywhere
I miss this kind of music...
This album was epic! You can hear her pain in every track, I'd love to meet whoever made her write this album.
I'd kick his ass then shake his hand ;-)
Roy Ball absolutely! Every song, every emotion. I'll help you find the guy! Haha :-P
"I don't wanna be the bandage of the wound is not mine"
Roy Ball LMAO, you said it man

I got here because i'm rolling up on forty and i can still remember shit.
EDIT: Doesn't it fuck you off when you accidentally make a mistake in your comment and after you've removed an accidental duplicate typo when all you want to say is "oops". Then you have to edit the fucker. There's far worse thing in the world, but what a motherfucker.
Uno de los mejores albumes de ese rock-pop rico y noventoso.
Aguante Alanis Morissette!
+Diego Coronel es una joya de álbum de los 90s!

Haha, but I hope that back to the future shit don't happen tho flying cars! Who going what oil leaking on them or fall on them naw'll I don't see it happening period even tho anything possible.
@Samuel Bonham yeah I remember it now. Don't laugh at me but I had to go listen to it theme song. But for some odd reason, that show remind me of the wild Thorne berry girl haha. Do you remember that show?
@Samuel Bonham oh, did you heard they (disney) coming out with an that's so raven show 2 (not the real name of it but that's what it being called right name) omg I so happy about that.

Sarah Harold how stupid
+JadeNut Why? :(
over the years this has become my favorite alanis song....
Me too! or one of my favorites.
@Ian Brown She is singing about her ex boyfriend that calls her up at 1am in the morning moaning because he abuses the living shit out of everyone and everyone hates him.
@Ian Brown "I don't want to be the filler if the void is solely yours." Not you just saying talking about other people. I just like these lines.. "Lend me some fresh air." haha
@Ian Brown Okay whatever have no idea what you are talking about. I don't know you and you asked what it meant. Nevermind, it was just my input.
@Ian Brown Maybe this is woman music and you just wouldn't understand because you are that great.
This is sadly the m forgotten song off Jagged little pill
tremenda letra!!!!!!!!
@Facundo Varela me emociona ver un comentario en español :)
buena rola!
"I don´t want to be a substitute for the smoke you've being inhaling" <3
Alanis u still havnt called me sweety im still awaitn patiently
This I believe is Alanis's "Silversong." ♫ Visiting hours are '925'... ♫.
Morisette
I love Alanis Morsett
I love Alanis Morsett
The album version.
Beyonce
Love this song,and the whole album. One of the true timeless greats. Anyone watch "The Trip to Italy"? with Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon? They played some of Alanis' tracks while driving.....-not by accident either!
dude thanks ima watch that shit
Great show, Amazing album
Hilarious that in the tv show 'weeds' she plays yhe role of the doctor.....all I could think when I saw her in her doctor coat was hahahaha......she has this song...but shes playing the doctor. ...lmao:)
Haha! I forgot about that show!thanks for reminding me,I'm gonna go watch it now XD
...too much to ask for...............
What do you think me for?
What do you thank me for?
"Not the doctor"
Funny thing for me about this song. Some years early Jethro Tull recorded a song called "Doctor to my disease". It's got the same topic, but sung from the male perspective with the main line There is no use you playing doctor to my disease.
I don't want to be the sweeper of the egg shells that you walk upon
Powerful line
Jagged Little Pill= You Just Gotta Love It <3
I think I went out with that same guy.
Deborah Macaoidh-Selim LOL
FAACK!!! Me too!!
Thanks for having this version I can't stand the acoustic
version of this song and I couldn't find it anywhere.
thatchawokapon.
Where's the nic from? Cool name btw! :D
ahhhhhh me la canto toda!! /// Sing it all!!
This CD was so essential to my college experience it brings back all kinds of memories.
This is when i was in high school. I thought that any music that was music was classic. i thought she was hype. I regret it now. I missed out on her at her best. I didn't see she was gorgous till it was too late.
this song missed you too.
thats the key. anyone can relate to this song. Alanis understands things on a whole different level.
Kickass!
I can relate 2 this song.......
I missed this song...
No quiero ser el relleno si el vacío es sólo tuyo
Yo no quiero ser tu vaso de whisky de malta
Escondido en el cajón de abajo
No quiero ser la venda si la herida no es mía
Préstame un poco de aire fresco
No quiero ser adorado por lo que sólo represento para ti
No quiero ser tu niñera
Eres un chico muy grande ya
No quiero ser tu madre
Yo no te llevé en mi vientre durante nueve meses
Muéstrame la puerta de atrás
love :O)
