Don’t Get the Bends

(To the tune of “You’ve Got a Friend”)

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, yeah yeah yeah
Don’t get the bends

It’s good to know
Yes it’s good to know
So –  you
Don’t get the bends

Don’t get the bends

Don’t get the bends

Don’t get the bends

Don’t get the bends
(fade)
