What is it that makes me just a little bit queasy?
There´s a breeze that makes my breathing not so easy
I´ve had my lungs checked out with X rays
I´ve smelled the hospital hallways
Someday I´ll have a disappearing hairline
Someday I´ll wear pyjamas in the daytime
Times when the day is like a play by Sartre
When it seems a bookburning´s in perfect order
I gave the doctor my description
I´ve tried to stick my prescriptions [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/c/crash_test_dummies/afternoons_and_coffeespoons.html ]
Someday I´ll have a disappearing hairline
Someday I´ll wear pyjamas in the daytime
Afternoons will be measured out
Measured out, measured with
Coffeespoons and T.S. Eliot
Maybe if I could do a play-by playback
I could change the test results that I will get back
I´ve watched the summer evenings pass by
I´ve heard the rattle in my bronchi...
Someday I´ll have a disappearing hairline
Someday I´ll wear pyjamas in the daytime
Afternoons will be measured out
Measured out, measured with
Coffeespoons and T.S. Eliot (2x)

Yes, but what about the waiting for the test results and the rattle in his bronchi? That's waiting for lung cancer test results... Been there.

Existential crises. He's singing about the realization that he will one day age and die. Perhaps he experiences a feeling of sudden dread at times when the thought about life not existing if it wasn't because people created existence comes to his mind.
