Lyrics
Take away the sensation inside
Bittersweet migraine in my head
It's like a throbbing toothache of the mind
I can't take this feeling anymore
Drain the pressure from the swelling
This sensation's overwhelming
Give me a long kiss goodnight
And everything'll be alright
Tell me that I won't feel a thing
So give me Novacaine
Out of body and out of mind
Kiss the demons out of my dreams
I get the funny feeling that's alright
Jimmy says it's better than here
I'll tell you why
Drain the pressure from the swelling
This sensation's overwhelming
Give me a long kiss goodnight
And everything'll be alright
Tell me that I won't feel a thing
So give me Novacaine
Oh, Novacaine
Drain the pressure from the swelling
This sensation's overwhelming
Give me a long kiss goodnight
And everything'll be alright
Tell me, Jimmy, I won't feel a thing
So give me Novacaine
