MORRISSEY - Lifeguard On Duty lyrics

rate me

The work you chose has a practical vein

But I read much more into your name

Lifeguard

Patrolling the length 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 from the ails and the ills

And from other things

The centre 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 from the ails and the ills

And from other things

Love me, oh help me oh

Oh help me, ah help me oh

Lifeguard, guard me from life

Lifeguard, guard me from life

The last bus home is the dangerous one

A baseball bat across 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
