Cold Turkey
Lennon, John
Shaved Fish (1975)

This is a new song that, er...John wrote.
And we've never done this number before so best of luck.
It's called Cold turkey.
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 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
so is my head
one thing I'm sure of
I'm in at the deep freeze.

Cold turkey has got me on the run.

Thirty-six hours
rolling in pain
praying to someone
free me again.

Oh I'll be a good boy
make, make me well
I'll give you anything
get me out of this hell.

Cold turkey has got me on the run.

I've got to get that voice, aahh, aahh...
How are we doin'?
