Totally Insane
Have you ever personally wondered
If you're playing with a totally full deck?
It may be that you just think you're normal
And you really don't even suspect
You're certain it's got to be everyone else
That's just a little bit off centre
It can't be you, you're totally sane
In your mind that thought never entered
Well, here's a news flash, me buckeroo!
A wake up call I'm sending to you
Those images swirling around in your brain
They're not real, there's something askew!
Believe me, I used to be totally insane
Then got zapped between the eyes
By a bolt of lightning that cleared my sinuses
As well as all the sewers nearby!
You may not be operating on all eight cylinders
See a shrink before it's too late
He surely can prescribe some strong medication
So you won't go around half baked!
Have you ever personally wondered
If you're playing with a totally full deck?
Here's a wake up call, me buckeroo
Seems your train might have been in a wreck!
