2nd Verse
(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 ifs or ands or buts, oh no.

6th verse
(my analyst) told me that i was right out of my head,
but i said dear doctor, i think that its you instead,
cause i have got a thing thats unique and new.
it proves that i'll have the last laugh on you.
cause instead of one head.... (to coda)
