lyrics

Cotton Wool

Lock down that emotion
Don’t let it rear its lumpy head
Stamp out all dissention
Keep your lip zipped
Lock it up tight so it feels safe
Wrap it up right and it won’t break
Keeping it light so it don’t weigh
Make it waterproof, spare the heartache

And send it half the world away
Hey hey hey
In cotton wool to keep the pain at bay

Seal off the indecision
Don’t let doubt around the door
I put it down to strange relations
Keeping it nice, so it feels right
Does your heart race through the hot night
In the wrong place
And it feels strange - jam it in tight
Make it over-sized and it won’t break

So lock me up tight so I’m constrained
Keep me boxed in so it feels safe
Keep me taped down so I will stay
Keep my lip zipped so I can’t say
Make me waterproof so I don’t weep
Make me over-sized so I don’t break
