Slender Means - Painless Life lyrics

There's a cure for every letdown There's a pill for every hurt And I never could grow attached to pain God bless the scientists Redefining happiness As a twelve-hour release tablet, yeah Oh, yeah Give, give me the painless life Take the edges off a serrated knife I'm never gonna let it get through my skin Nothing going out, nothing coming in Gonna put up four walls of stone And feel so good down to the bone For a little while, I will feel so brave Riding on the crest of this chemical wave You had me before hello Eyes far away and shallow And the conversation was so brief God bless the scientists Redefining happiness As a twelve-hour release tablet, yeah Oh, yeah Give, give me the painless life Take the edges off a serrated knife I'm never gonna let it get through my skin Nothing going out, nothing coming in Gonna put up four walls of stone And feel so good down to the bone For a little while, I will feel so brave Riding on the crest of this chemical wave
