Mind Games
Recently I had to go
to see a state appointed shrink
to see if I was defective
that I really could not think
he asked me silly questions
with intelligence of cognitive skills
his aim to measure
I felt somewhat looked down upon
but this one thing I treasure
you want to play head games?
I adore when the gauntlet's thrown down,
wanna see who's quicker?
I'll never lose my crown!
I rattled off the answers
far faster than he' thought
a dull witted mental defective
by all means what he sought
this challenge merely awoke my mind
now I'll teach him what I ought
I guess I'm just that kind...
I don't know for sure, but I surely think,
when I was done with him
it was he who needed a shrink.
