VIDEO Going Cold Turkey

[whoosh]

Going cold turkey yeah cos I can
I've got a skillet yeah
I got a pan
Ain't gonna heat up that
Old bird again
Going cold turkey is easy
It ain't hard as they say
I eat that old bird
Near every day
Melody Beals got some songs
You ought to hear them I say
I could listen to them all the time
When I feel that way
Melody Beals sings like an angel I say
They ease the pain of going
Cold Turkey each day
Take it to the bridge
It ain't that far away
Cold turkey is rad
I eat it nearly each day
Melody Beals singing
Is so fantastic man
Heart skips a beat
When I hear her singing
This song is nearly at
at it's end
Nice time chatting
We must do this again
I've got this song and it's going around
Melody Beals is singing
Boy ! Wow!
What a wonderful sound
Voice soaring high
Lark in the sky
I'm lost in wonder
I'm raised so high
Melody Beals an angel in the world
Just passing through
La la la la la la la la la
