novocaine

a red river of wine won't drown you

no amount of time could wash you away

no holy prayer's gonna save me

this love affair is like a shallow grave

ooooh

give me a shot

strong as you got

baby

'cause i don't wanna feel a thing

no

no no no

broken in two

strung out on you

i gotta numb the fire flowing through my veins

ooh with sweet novocaine

novocaine

and i'm paralyzed

i forget you

alone and hypnotized by what you do to me

and time after time i let you defeat me

till i found a place you can't reach me

yeah

give me a shot

strong as you got

baby

'cause i don't wanna feel a thing

no

no no no

broken in two

strung out on you

i gotta numb the fire flowing through my veins

yeah with sweet novocaine

yeah

no baby

oooh

give me a shot

strong as you got

baby

'cause i don't wanna feel a thing

no

no no no

broken in two

strung out on you

i gotta numb the fire flowing through my veins

ooh with sweet novocaine

a red river of wine won't drown you

no amount of time could wash you away
