And 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 endeavor



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

And all I ask of myself

Is that I hold together



Get me divine ascension

Supply my worst intention

To thrash it out in heaven

Our Lord, too 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

And all I ask of myself

Is that I hold together



And all I ask of myself

Is that I hold together

And all I ask of myself

Is that I hold together



And all I ask of myself

Is that I hold together

And all I ask of myself

Is that I hold together



And all I ask of myself

Is that I hold together

And all I ask of myself

Is that I hold together



That I hold together

That I hold together

And all I ask of myself

Is that I hold together
