Lyrics for Near Death Experience Experience
Used to be like toffee in a kitten's teeth Used to build air raid shelters out of sticks And leaves and spend the whole day underneath Used to be like copper Pliable but strong Used to smile and nod and say you're right be polite When you know that everybody's wrong Know that everybody's wrong Know that everybody's wrong So you dare the plane to crash Redeem the miles for cash When it starts to dive And we'll dance like cancer survivors Like you're grateful simply to be alive The prognosis was that you should've died No there's nothing wrong There's nothing wrong When it starts to dive And we'll dance like cancer survivors Like we're grateful simply to be alive No there's nothing wrong There's nothing wrong When it starts to dive And we'll dance like cancer survivors
