Don't Tell Them You're Sane |
A boy I know is sick in his head — |
At least that’s what the doctors say he is Shut in his room for hours on end |
Looks like he’s forgotten, but is he His mind it ticks, more than you know |
One day something in his head will click |
Warders fill him full of lies, he fights he knows |
They’ll never convince him that he’s mad! |
At breakfast he is strapped in a chair (won't go far) |
Just a word out of place, he’s sent to his room |
Don’t tell them you’re sane |
They’ll laugh and put you to sleep |
Don’t tell them you’re sane, but you are |
Tell me what you did today, was it good |
What was it like and who was it with |
Don’t think I’m prying I’d just like to know |
Why it is you do things so slow |
Take him to the doctor, see what he says |
I don’t know why he bothers, he’s in for good |
