Cold Turkey
John Lennon
(Recorded live at Madison Square Garden, New York, 30 August 1972)
"This is something that happens to
all of us ... one way or the other." "One, two, a one two, three, four!"
Temperature's rising
Fever is high
Can't see no future
Can't see no sky
My feet are so heavy
So is my head
I wish I was a baby
I wish I was dead
Cold turkey
You know, has got me on the run
My body is aching
Goose-pimple bone
Can't see no body
Leave me alone
My eyes are wide open
Can't get to sleep
One thing I'm sure of
I'm at the deep freeze
Cold turkey You know, itīs got me on the run
Cold turkey You know, itīs got me on the run
Thirty-six moons
Rolling in pain
Praying to someone
Free me again
Oh I'll be a good boy
Please make me well
Iīll promise you anything
Get me out of this hell
Cold turkey
You know itīs got me on the run
"I hope youīve enjoyed it!"
