lyrics

I've got a little cuckoo
Bird I'm my head
I should be in a straight jacket
Strapped to a bed
Maybe I'm a little mental
Cos clearly I'm insane
Talking to the manic voices
Who live in my brain
Maybe I'm schizophrenic
Keep talking to myself
There's only me in my world
I don't need anyone else

Here come the men in the white coats
To catch me if they can
I know I'm a loose cannon
That lives in looney land

Are you really that crazy
Doolally tapped
If you slip into a daydream
Just give me a slap
Living in asylum
In my foolproof pad
Escape this institution
I'm crazy not mad

I remember when I lost my mind
All I did was laugh
Am I really unstable
Or just plain daft
Sometimes I think I'm a carpet
Spread out on the floor
Won't somebody turn my handle
Cos now I'm being a door
It's not that I'm a danger
I'm no maniac
I wouldn't hurt anybody
I promise that

I went out and got myself
An invisible friend
I don't know all their names
Cos I've got forty of them
Some people say that I'm eccentric
Some say that I'm unique
I've got a speech impediment
I s stutter when I speak
All my medication
Helps me to see
Things that aren't really there
I'm living the dream

Not mad
Not mad
Not mad
I'm crazy not mad
