Don't Get the Bends
(To the tune of "You've Got a Friend")

I am very pleased that Mr. David Simmons has made a professional recording of this song (complete song downloadable HERE) and others can be downloaded HERE. You will need to unzip the file to release the MP3. I am providing all songs for free download, but hope you will support this effort by purchasing my Metabolic Melody albums or calendar at the URLs at the bottom of the lyrics to this song.

When you're deeply diving

Don't forget the ni-tro-gen

That's dissolved way down in your bloodstream yeah

Come up slow adjusting or it will bubble out

Creating some pain you can do without

When you rise from below

You should know you gotta go slow

Don't be racing to surface again

Summer, fall, winter, or spring

Decompression's not a fun thing

I can tell you yeah yeah yeah

Don't get the bends

Yes it's good to know - so -  you

Don't get the bends

Don't get the bends

(fade)
