Numb

novacaine
numb
numb
numb
in the mouth
it's in your hand
novacaine

can't explain the feeling
takes so long
the healing
gum numb

the super bowl
the super hype
it takes too long too long to type
it's novacaine

what once hurt
is dead and gone
you'll find out
that I'm not wrong
it's novacaine

numb
summer sun shot
winter was winning
can't speak
lip hanging down
novacaine

doctor gives it
one more shot
can't feel at all
novacaine

numb
