Lyrics for Lifeguard on Duty

The world you chose has a practical vein But I read much more into your name Lifeguard. Patrolling the lenght and the breadth of your pool I call your name from the vestibule Lifeguard Lifeguard - save me from life Save me from life Save me from life Save me from the ails and the ills, and From other things. The center of the town is a dangerous zone Drenched in phlegm every time that I come home Lifeguard - save me from life. Save me from life. Save me from life. Save me from the ails and the ills And from other things. Love me, oh help me, oh Oh help me, oh help oh Lifeguard, guard me from life Lifeguard, guard me from life. The last bus home is the dangerous one, A baseball bat against the collarbone. Lifeguard. Lifeguard - save me from life. Save me from life. Save me from life. Cause it's the only life I'll ever have, I'm always good, I'm never bad And I've always been so kind, To the sick and to the partially blind. Save me from life.
