Simply put... "wood" as used here in the song has a second meaning beyond the superstition of knocking on wood - it is referring to a coffin. I've never had to (die and be in my coffin) but I know someone who has etc... The testing can refer to anything. Get tested for AIDS. Have a colonoscopy and see if you have colon cancer. Whatever. Basically ... I've never died - but I know someone who has - I'm sure it isn't good - Well, that's the impression that I get.
