Foghat - Nervous Release lyrics
Dave Peverett - Riff Bros. Music - ASCAP
I'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 punch
 I'll hang up the phone, grab the keys,
 I need your nervous release, ah yeah.
{Instrumental}Foghat - Nervous Release - http://motolyrics.com/foghat/nervous-release-lyrics.html
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!
