Lyrics Ned's Atomic Dustbin

Ned's Atomic Dustbin

All I Ask Of Myself Is That I Hold Together

Half as drunk is twice as clever,

appalled when tarred and feathered.

remarks upon the weather

will just retard endeavour.

this piece of meat is pumping,

poison 'round itself so neatly

about it, pound for pound,

it feeds away and most discreetly.

And all I ask of myself

is that I hold together

Get me divine ascension,

supply my worst intention,

to thrash it out in heave,

our lord - to thick to mention,

this piece of mind is keeping

to itself, if only sleeping.

regard it, freeze it, jar it

assign it all to healing.

And all I ask of myself

is that I hold together
