National Health [Live]

Nervous tension, man's invention,

Is the biggest killer that's around today

Let the tension out or it will build and build inside

And strike you down some day

Nervous tension, man's invention

Is the biggest waste of human energy

Let the tension out, or it will surely kill

And that will be a tragedy

Valium helps you for a while

But somehow Valium seems to bring me down

Aren't guaranteed to send you round the bend

You gotta let out the tension

With a little bit of exercise

Loosen up your muscles

And feel the knots in your body untie

It sure beats Quaalude's

It sure beats cocaine

Even Freud recommends it

Cause it relieves the strain

Altogether now

Some people say it sends you deaf

Some people say it makes you old

Some people say it blows your mind

But I say

If it's good for your health

It's good for your mind

If it keeps you together

It's really all right

We oh we oh

C'mon, kick the cat

It's the state of the national health

Blame it on the national health

Nervous tension, nervous tension, nervous tension

Nervous tension. nervous tension, nervous tension

Nervous tension, man's invention

Is the biggest killer that's around

Valium helps you for a while

But somehow Valium seems to bring me down

Aren't guaranteed to drive you round the bend

I say I say

It's good for your health

Keeps you together, it's the state of the national health

Blame it on the national health

It's the state of the national health
