SOS Letra

trying to avoid conformity

but i tried too hard and i fucked up my body
maybe for forever
so i started searching for a healer
who could put me back together.

S-O-S-O-S-O-S
Emergency! Emergency!
S-O-S
I guess I guess
you can't help me you can't help me.

I went to the neurologist, tell me Dr.
am I cursed with carpal tunnel hands?
He sent electric shocks down my arms and fingers
nothing seemed to show up in the scan

physical therapist gave exercises
dipped my hands in wax
20 minutes dawn (???) got
to try to teach my muscles to relax

S-O-S-O-S-O-S
Emergency! Emergency!
S-O-S
I guess I guess
you can't help me you can't help me.

back in Michigan
I was a lab rat darling
waiting rooms and offices all day
send me down the catscan tunnel like on tv
nothing is a mystery they say.

Chiropracter can you crack my back once more
I want to feel a change
acupuncturist gave me some bitter tea
i drink it twice each day.

S-O-S-O-S-O-S
Emergency! Emergency!
S-O-S
I guess I guess
you can't help me you can't help me.

Alexander felt (???) in Yoga classes
reading books upon the old subway
i feel like an expert in chronic pain
but i can't seem to make mine go away.

Got a job in social work that don't quite fit
at least i do not take
i quit my music now through a dictation microphone
reluctantly i write.
i try to be a writer but i'm really not so sure about it.

S-O-S-O-S-O-S
Emergency! Emergency!
S-O-S
I guess I guess
you can't help me you can't help me.

My love got so tangled up in all that struggle
we had to say goodbye in the end.
there's no one to blame there is no one the same
just give it time to fade away and mend.

as for me i guess i've always wanted
to be some big tragedy.
i guess i should enjoy the adventure of a
life in a emergency.

Emergency emergency emergency!
believe it!

S-O-S-O-S-O-S
Emergency! Emergency!
S-O-S
I guess I guess
you can't help me you can't help me.
