Foghat - Nervous Release Lyrics
Dave Peverett - Riff Bros. Music - ASCAPI've been wearin' my fingers down to the bone,Just pushin' your number on the telephone.I chewed up the rug, knocked a hole in the wall,But your line was busy everytime I call.Remember the shots that we took last night?Polaroid Woman sure treat me right.But right now I'm down on my knees,I need your nervous release,Your nervous release.I had a long hard day and now my nerves are on edge,Like I just stepped back from a window ledge.I smoked too many straights, too much caffeine,Feel like I'm burnin' bad gasoline.IBM Woman, now I've got a hunch,You're too wound up from operating that punchI'll hang up the phone, grab the keys,I need your nervous release, ah yeah.{Instrumental}I woke up at noon, I should've stayed in bed.I checked my level, it was in the red.I swear I heard voices, there was no one around,An ice-cold shower couldn't cool me down.I used to brag about my nerves of steel,Heavy Metal Woman just can't be real!Cool me down by degrees,I need your nervous release.N-n..n- n- ...I'm as nervous as a man could be,Full of guilt and insecurity.Too much work, man it's killing me!,Like a mad dog howling through the trees,I need your nervous release, your nervous release.N-n..n-n..n-n..n-nervous release.N-n..n-n..n-n..n-nervous release.Oh baby, oh baby...Alright!
