| Parody Song Title: | "Why Do We Get Bends?" |
| Parody Written by: | Alvin Rhodes |
why do we get bends ?...why do we get bends ?
why do we get bends ?...why do we get bends ?
if you've been down there, for a long long time
you must remember to be slow to climb
why do we get bends ?...why do we get bends ?
why do we get bends ?...why do we get bends ?
you'll get those nasty bubbles, i have found
in all that nitrogen, that's hangin' 'round
why do we get bends ?...why do we get bends ?
why do we get bends ?...why do we get bends ?
you're breathin' pressured air, inside that line
you'd best be careful and just take your time
why do we get bends ?...why do we get bends ?
why do we get bends ?...why do we get bends ?
big blotches on your skin can cause agony
won't happen if you take it carefully
why do we get bends ?...why do we get bends ?
why do we get bends ?...why do we get bends ?
you might get dizzy like your mind is bent
so cautious risin' is some time well spent
why do we get bends ?...why do we get bends ?
why do we get bends ?...why do we get bends ?
sometimes, i don't...dive...right
but yet i know that you'd better watch out
why do we get bends ?...why do we get bends ?
why do we get bends ?...why do we get bends ?
a coughin' spasm is the price you'll pay
it might not kill ya, but again, it may
why do we get bends ?...why do we get bends ?
why do we get bends ?...why do we get bends ?
why do we get bends ?...why do we get bends ?

Sounds like our alvin has a case of "Rapture of the Deep". 5s.
Just came up for air and to bend you some "5's" ~ ~ ~
I'd rather get a Benz, than the bends...unique theme..very well done..where I'm from, we used to call 'em cramps...but I guess, nowadays that's more of a feminine condition...5's
Not familiar with War, but 5s for a quirky idea.
thanks johnny paul AFW and stephen
What Stephen Harrington said; ingenious title switch and theme... 555 lbs. of air left, so back to the boat for now.
Dive resorts in the Caribbean played a (parody?) song, two lines of which I remember are:
I need a couple of doses
Of nit-ro-gen narcosis....Anyone know the rest? - TT
