LADY PAINKILLER

no matter how you suffer
if it's one arm on the other
if your head aches so bad
that you can't wear a hat
if your teeth make you shiver
from your ears to your feet
and if you feel the weather changing
in your elbows and your knees

there's one lady i trust
her private hospital is a must
you may be a wreck
but when you come back
all you say is thank you...

lady painkiller
she keeps you warm, when it's cold outside
and there's no place to hide

lady painkiller
she cools you down, when you're too hot
no she don't ever stop

lady painkiller
she's got healing hands, and the rest heals too
when you're lonely and blue

lady painkiller
very soft and a little devote
and all your sorrows go up in smoke

when your shoes are too tight
or your mouth is too dry
when your hips are too stiff
or your hands have no grip
and when your third leg is neglected
and oh your heart feels so rejected
when above your toes
only your belly grows

there's one lady i trust
her private hospital is a must
you may be a wreck
but when you come back
all you say is thank you...

lady painkiller
she keeps you warm, when it's cold outside
and there's no place to hide

lady painkiller
she cools you down, when you're too hot
no she don't ever stop

lady painkiller
she's got healing hands, and the rest heals too
when you're lonely and blue

lady painkiller
very soft and a little devote
and all your sorrows go up in smoke

lady painkiller
she keeps you warm, when it's cold outside
and there's no place to hide

lady painkiller
she cools you down, when you're too hot
no she don't ever stop

lady painkiller
she's got healing hands, and the rest heals too
when you're lonely and blue

lady painkiller
very soft and a little devote
and all your sorrows go up in smoke

lady painkiller
lady painkiller
