Twisted

Written by：Annie Ross/Wardell Gray

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
