MY IRON LUNG
(My Iron Lung singles/EP, The Bends)

Faith
You're driving me away
You do it everyday
You don't mean it but it hurts like Hell
My brain says I'm receiving pain
A lack of oxygen from my life support
My iron lung

Were too young to fall asleep
Too cynical to speak
We are losing it
Can't you tell?
We scratch our eternal itch
Our twentieth century bitch
And we are grateful for our iron lung

The headshrinkers
They want everything
My Uncle Bill
My Belisha Beacon
The headshrinkers
They want everything
My Uncle Bill
My Belisha Beacon

Suck
Suck your teenage thumb
Toilet trained and dumb
When the power runs out
We'll just hum
This
This is our new song
Just like the last one
A total waste of time
My iron lung

The headshrinkers
They want everything
My Uncle Bill
My Belisha Beacon
The headshrinkers
They want everything
My Uncle Bill
My Belisha Beacon

If you're frightened
You can be frightened
You can be
That's okay
But if you're frightened
You can be frightened
You can be
That's okay

The headshrinkers
They want everything
My Uncle Bill
My Belisha Beacon
The headshrinkers
They want everything
My Uncle Bill
My Belisha Beacon
