Lyrics

0:06My analyst told me
0:07That i was right out of my head
0:09The way he described it
0:11He said i'd be better dead than live
0:13I didn't listen to his jive
0:16I knew all along
0:18That he was all wrong
0:19And i knew that he thought
0:21I was crazy but i'm not
0:23Oh no
0:25My analyst told me
0:27That i was right out of my head
0:29He said i'd need treatment
0:30But i'm not that easily led
0:33He said i was the type
0:34That was most inclined
0:36When out of his sight
0:37To be out of my mind
0:39And he thought i was nuts
0:41No more ifs or ands or buts
0:46They say as a child
0:47I appeared a little bit wild
0:49With all my crazy ideas
0:51But i knew what was happening
0:52I knew i was a genius
0:56What's so strange when you know
0:59That you're a wizard at three
1:01I knew that this was meant to be
1:05Now i heard little children
1:07Were supposed to sleep tight
1:09That's why i got into the vodka one night
1:13My parents got frantic
1:14Didn't know what to do
1:16But i saw some crazy scenes
1:18Before i came to
1:19Now do you think i was crazy
1:21I may have been only three
1:23But i was swinging
1:26They all laugh at angry young men
1:28They all laugh at edison
1:29And also at einstein
1:31So why should i feel sorry
1:33If they just couldn't understand
1:34The idiomatic logic
1:36That went on in my head
1:38I had a brain
1:39It was insane
1:40Oh they used to laugh at me
1:41When i refused to ride
1:42On all those double decker buses
1:44All because there was no driver on the top
1:52My analyst told me
1:54That i was right out of my head
1:56But i said dear doctor
1:57I think that it's you instead
1:59Because i have got a thing
2:01That's unique and new
2:03To prove it i'll have
2:04The last laugh on you
2:06'Cause instead of one head
2:09I got two
2:11And you know two heads are better than one
My analyst told me
That i was right out of my head
The way he described it
He said i'd be better dead than live
I didn't listen to his jive
I knew all along
That he was all wrong
And i knew that he thought
I was crazy but i'm not
Oh no
My analyst told me
That i was right out of my head
He said i'd 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 ifs or ands or buts
They say as a child
I appeared a little bit wild
With all my crazy ideas
But i knew what was happening
I knew i was a genius
What's so strange when you know
That you're a wizard at three
I knew that this was meant to be
Now i heard little children
Were supposed to sleep tight
That's why i got into the vodka one night
My parents got frantic
Didn't know what to do
But i saw some crazy scenes
Before i came to
Now do you think i was crazy
I may have been only three
But i was swinging
They all laugh at angry young men
They all laugh at edison
And also at einstein
So why should i feel sorry
If they just couldn't understand
The idiomatic logic
That went on in my head
I had a brain
It was insane
Oh they used to laugh at me
When i refused to ride
On all those double decker buses
All because there was no driver on the top
My analyst told me
That i was right out of my head
But i said dear doctor
I think that it's you instead
Because i have got a thing
That's unique and new
To prove it i'll have
The last laugh on you
'Cause instead of one head
I got two
And you know two heads are better than one
