Skitzo-phrenic Lament

you might think i'm
schizophrenic
i'm on disability
and i'm unemployed
i get these attacks
of fear and panic
you might think i'm
paranoid

yeah i got problems
well don't we all?
i got this fear of heights
and i'm eight feet tall

I know they're out to get me
they're in my head
and if i wake up dead
i'm going back to bed

they say they know things like
how to make me well
put me in a straight jacket
throw me in a padded cell

they give me rorshach tests
n' feed me lots of pills
i think i figured out
what makes me want to kill.

Yeah I Got problems,
Well, Don't we all?
Those Special voices say it's so!
They know it all.

someday they'l let me go
back to my home
it'l be a long long time
but i won't be alone.
me and my woman, and
life will be much merrier.
i know she's waitin' for me
right where i burried her!
