Nervous tension, man's invention, |
|
Is the biggest killer that's around today |
|
Let the tension out or it will build and build inside |
|
And strike you down some day |
|
Nervous tension, man's invention |
|
Is the biggest waste of human energy |
|
Let the tension out, or it will surely kill |
|
And that will be a tragedy |
|
Valium helps you for a while |
|
But somehow valium seems to bring me down |
|
There's no pill i can recommend where side effects |
|
Aren't guaranteed to send you round the bend |
|
You gotta let out the tension |
|
With a little bit of exercise |
|
Loosen up your muscles |
|
And feel the knots in your body untie |
|
We oh we oh |
|
Oh oh oh oh ah ah ah ah |
|
Oh oh oh oh ah ah ah ah |
|
It sure beats quaaludes |
|
It sure beats cocaine |
|
Even freud recommends it |
|
Cos it relieves the strain |
|
Altogether now |
|
Oh oh oh oh ah ah ah ah |
|
Oh oh oh oh ah ah ah ah |
|
Some people say it sends you deaf |
|
Some people say it sends you blind |
|
Some people say it makes you old |
|
Some people say it blows your mind |
|
But i say |
|
If it's good for your health |
|
It's good for your mind |
|
If it keeps you together |
|
It's really all right |
|
We oh we oh |
|
Oh c'mon, kick the cat |
|
Oh oh oh oh it's the state of the national health |
|
Oh oh oh oh blame it on the national health |
|
Nervous tension, nervous tension, nervous tension |
|
Nervous tension. nervous tension, nervous tension |
|
Nervous tension, man's invention |
|
Is the biggest killer that's around |
|
Oh oh oh oh ah ah ah ah |
|
Oh oh oh oh ah ah ah an |
