basket case

one who is crazy, well i'll let the lyrics of the Green Day song say it for you.
Do you have the time
To listen to me whine
About nothin' and everything
All at once?

I am one of those
Melodramatic fools.
Neurotic to the bone,
No doubt about it.

Sometimes I give myself the creeps.
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me.
It all keeps addin' up.
I think I'm crackin' up.
Am I just paranoid,
Or am I just stoned?

I went to a shrink
To analyze my dreams.
She said it's lack of sex
That's bringin' me down.

I went to a whore.
He said my life's a bore,
So quit my whining cuz
It's bringin' her down.

Sometimes I give myself the creeps.
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me.
It all keeps addin' up.
I think I'm crackin' up.
Am I just paranoid?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Grasping to control.
So I better hold on.

Sometimes I give myself the creeps.
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me.
It all keeps addin' up.
I think I'm crackin' up.
Am I just paranoid,
Or am I just stoned?
