| Out of my mind, that’s what she said to me, she was unkind, said I was crazy.
|
| I thought that was cruel, she didn’t know me at all,
|
| What can you do when someone tells you you’re insane?
|
| She heard the news, knew all about me, I was too strange.
|
| She could do very well without me, and I didn’t cry, I tried to say hello.
|
| But it makes you feel crazy when somebody calls you insane.
|
| I tried to tell her things were all right with me, she wouldn’t listen for a minute,
|
| But then when she told me it was all in my mind, what else can a poor boy do?
|
| It pays to let her fly over to the table
|
| Where the games were measured out in thin white lines.
|
| The last time I saw her, she was stoned out of her mind,
|
| How many minds had she sent spinning only to find they hadn’t gone anywhere at all?
|
| I said that was sad, she didn’t understand
|
| It hurts in your heart when somebody says you’re insane.
|
| I tried to tell her things were all right with me, she wouldn’t listen for a minute,
|
| But then when she told me it was all in my mind, what else can a poor boy do?
|
| It pays to let her fly over to the table
|
| Where the games were measured out in thin white lines.
|
| The last time I saw her she was tryin' to blow her mind,
|
| What can you do when someone tells you you’re insane? |
| What can you do?
|
| Stop for a while and listen, stop for a while and listen, and then some easy go your way. |
