Bones
I don't want to be crippled and cracked
Shoulders, wrists, knees and back
Ground to dust and ash
Crawling on all fours
When you've got to feel it in your bones
When you've got to feel it in your bones
Now I can't climb the stairs
Pieces missing everywhere
Prozac painkillers
When you've got to feel it in your bones
When you've got to feel it in your bones
And I used to fly like Peter Pan
All the children flew when I touched their hands
When you've got to feel it in your bones
When you've got to feel it in your bones |

Yet another song (like "My Iron Lung") that reflects Thom's obsession
with poor health, this is perhaps a product of the physical tribulations
of touring. The song looks at Thom's fear of growing old and becoming
physically incapacitated. Thom : "We recorded this about four times
before we got it right. The original had the ending going on for about
a minute and a half, which was something Jonny got from The Fall."
