Teethgrinder by Therapy?

This feels good, nothing can stop me
Every nerve pumping hard through me
Every thought rushes at full speed
This false smile grates through babyteeth

(I’m a teethgrinder)
Teethgrinder
(In my sleep I grind my teeth)
(I’m a teethgrinder)
Teethgrinder
(In my sleep I grind my teeth)

Think to win and I’m up on it
I can’t lose, I’ve got nothing to
Try me now, I’ll try anything
This is me, this is what I feel

(I’m a teethgrinder)
Teethgrinder
(In my sleep I grind my teeth)
(I’m a teethgrinder)
Teethgrinder
(In my sleep I grind my teeth)

(Losing his mind and he feels it going)
(Losing his mind)
(Losing his mind and he feels it going)
(Losing his mind)
(Losing his mind)

(I’m a teethgrinder)
Teethgrinder
(In my sleep I grind my teeth)
(I’m a teethgrinder)
Teethgrinder
(In my sleep I grind my teeth)

(I’m a teethgrinder
In my sleep I grind my teeth)

The sample in “Teethgrinder” (“He’s losing his mind and he feels it going”) is taken from a 1960s information film by the US Navy warning of the dangers of LSD, a section of which was later included in a BBC documentary called The Beyond Within.

Other samples in “Teethgrinder” are taken from a TV documentary entitled American Conversations.
Teethgrinder was a single released by rock band Therapy?, taken from their album Nurse (1992).
An awesome single with an amazing cover and what a drummer!!!
