BAD POSTURE (2:20)

You would not believe the pain I feel
In my lower back
Sleeping on the floor is supposed to help
But every day I have a backache

Look at everybody standing straight
They don't have the problem
Look at me slouched in a chair like that
Gravity makes me lazy

I went to CVS to buy Doans pills
Cos' every day I get a back ache
I cannot believe the irritation
Muscles won't relax
People use the easy way out advice:
"Bad posture"

Yes I've tried exercise
Yes I take vitamins
It won't go away

Yes I try to stretch and
Yes I tried massage
It won't go away

But I have so much fun
Bending over tape decks,
It makes it get worse

I'm not a little boy anymore
I must be getting old and
It makes it worse

No turning back
I'll never feel good again
Is there a doctor in the house?

I ought to marry a chiropractor
That's for sure
Bad posture

Bend my spine
Bend my spine
Health is the concern here!
Charles Laughton knew.
