Jane Monheit - Twisted lyrics

My analyst told me, that I was right out of my head

The way he described, he said I'd be better dead

than alive, I didn't listen to his jive

I knew all along, 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 my head

He said I'd need treatment, but I'm not that easily led

He said I am the type that is most inclined

when out of his sight, to be out of my mind

Then he said I was nuts

No more ifs or ands or buts, oh no

They say as a child I appeared a little bit wild with all my crazy ideas

But I knew what was happenin, I knew I was a genius

What's so strange when you know you're a wizard at three

I knew that this was meant to be

Well, they say little children are supposed sleep tight

That's why I drank a fifth of 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 swingin

They all laughed at A. Graham Bell

They all laughed at Edison and also Einstein

So why should I feel sorry if they just couldn't understand

the reasoning and the logic that went on in my head

I had a brain, it was insane, so I choose

to let them laugh at me when I refuse to ride those double decker buses,

because there was no driver on the top

My analyst told me, that I was right out of my head

The way he described, he said I'd be better dead

than alive, I didn't listen to his jive

I knew all along, 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 my head

But I said "Dear doctor, I think it's you instead

because I have a thing that's unique and new

It proves that I'll have the last laugh or two

Cause instead of one head, I got two

And you know two heads are better than one!"
