Hello
Come in and get yourself something to drink
And tell me something I don’t know about you
I’ll tell you something ’bout me

Does it feel right?
Like penetrating insight
Or blinded by the cuckoo with the hiccups
Lets drink it to the side

I think I’m coming round, I’m seeing through the smoke
I think I’m coming round, I feelin’ signs some hope
Some water, some whisky, some cigarettes, some dope
I think I’m coming round, can you help me up to cope

Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

Trapped in
Undergoing bodily sins
The pole cannot be driven through the kneecap
The kneecap will prevail here

So keep trying
Prevent yourself from crying
You’re shaking, hyperventerlating mish mash
Made entirely outta bones

I think I’m coming round, I’m seeing through the smoke
I think I’m coming round, I feelin’ signs some hope
Some water, some whisky, some cigarettes, some dope
I think I’m coming round, can you help me up to cope

Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

I’ve been thinking one thing
But doing something else in a daze, yeah
I’m trying to keep from getting uptight
I’m trying to keep from getting uptight

I’ve been thinking one thing
But doing something else in a daze, yeah
I’m trying to keep from getting uptight
I’m trying to keep from getting uptight

The peace pipe
Is flying ’round the back stairs
The hippies will be campin’ out tonight
Singing Hari Kari

And right now
It’s cookin’ up a storm now
It’s intravenous Terra-Arm Max
Your spaceship has arrived, ‘please get in’

I’ve been thinking one thing
But doing something else in a daze, yeah
I’m trying to keep from getting uptight
I’m trying to keep from getting uptight

I’ve been thinking one thing
But doing something else in a daze, yeah
I’m trying to keep from getting uptight
I’m trying to keep from getting uptight

I’ve been thinking one thing
But doing something else in a daze, yeah
I’m trying to keep from getting uptight
I’m trying to keep from getting uptight

And I’ve been thinking one thing
But doing something else in a daze, yeah
I’m trying to keep from getting uptight
I’m trying to keep from getting uptight
