Twisted - Lyrics by Bette Midler


Lyrics
"
How ya doin' girls? Long time, no see.
Listen, I've been to the doctor lately.
Honey, I just spent forty dollars to hear that from that guy?"


My analyst told me
that I was right out of my head.

The way he described it he said,
"
You'd be better off dead
than alive."
I didn't listen to his jive.
I knew all along he was all wrong,
and I knew that he thought I was crazy,
but you know I'm not. Oh, no.


My analyst told me
that I was right out of my head.

He said I need treatment.

But I'm not that easily led.

He said I was the type that was most inclined
when out of his sight
to be out of my mind.

And he thought I was nuts.

No more if's or and's or but's.

Oh, no.


They say as a child I appeared a little bit wild
with all my crazy ideas.

But I knew what was happenin',
I knew I was a genius.

What's so strange when you know that
you're a wizard at three?
I said, "
Baby, this is meant for me, me, me, me."

I heard little children were supposed to sleep tight.

That's why I drank a fifth of vodka one night.

My parent's got frantic, didn't know what to do.

But I had saw some crazy things
before I came to.

Now, do you think I was crazy?
I may have been only three but I was swingin'.


They all laughed at A. Graham Bell,
they all laughed at Edison,
and also at Einstein.

So why should I feel sorry if they just
didn't understand the reasoning and the logic
that went on in my head.
I had a brain, it was insane.

So I just let them laugh at me
when I refused to ride on all those double-decker buses
all because there was no driver on the top.

Aaaaaaah.

"
Did you ever hear a story like that in your life?
Honey, that chick is bananas. Do you hear?
Bananas. Oh, waiter, bring me another banana dacquari, would ya?"

Ba, ba, ba, ba!
"
Oh, here she comes again."

Badada, badada, badada. Wo!


My analyst told me
that I was right out of my head.

But I said, "
Doctor,
I think that it's you instead.
'
Cause I got a thing that's so unique and new,
it proves that I got the last laugh on you.
'
Cause instead of one head, ooh, I got two.

And you know two heads are better than one."

"
Honey, she is twisted"
