Deluded in My Mind |
| My condition is a delusion created to escape my blame |
| And Dave thinks Glaswegian police are superheroes |
| Which his brain may have created |
| When the railings rattle in a mad bit of Glasgow |
| The police make him feel safer |
| So his condition is a delusion based on fear, it seems, mainly |
| But that’s nothing like me |
| Deluded in my mind |
| I do good things and never lie |
| But sometimes our minds can be the liars |
| And that’s why it wasn’t I |
| I’m deluded in my mind |
| I do good things and never lie |
| But sometimes our minds can be the liars |
| And that’s why it wasn’t I |
| But Lydia is nothing like me |
| She’s really unlucky in life, see |
| She’s prone to getting into a tight squeeze |
| She’s broken seven bones in her life, see |
| There’s no condition of delusion when it comes to Lydia at all |
| I thought I might be deluded 'cause her tale is ruddy unbelievable |
| A dislocated shoulder and a stolen car and a whole steal more |
| Her condition is of no delusion, Lydia is real to the core |
| But that’s nothing like me either |
| I’m deluded in my mind |
| I do good things and never lie |
| But sometimes our minds can be the liars |
| And that’s why it wasn’t I |
| I’m deluded in my mind |
| I do good things and never lie |
| But sometimes our minds can be the liars |
| And that’s why it wasn’t I |
| Steve, I think he might be like me |
| I felt that his mind might be lying |
| Something about him didn’t quite fit |
| This is why I really like Steve |
| Steve’s opinion is a conclusion that a road can curse its drivers |
| Which, initially, I figured was either stupid |
| Or, at best, his mind was mad |
| But how can I say he’s stupid when the thing about delusions |
| Is that I wouldn’t know I was mad? |
| Steve’s only condition is that it’s my opinion he’s deluded |
| But maybe I am? |
| So there’s no way to tell delusions from the concrete given facts |
| Maybe the common consensus is actually just madness |
| Maybe the wacky madman is actually not mad |
| And maybe if I carry on shouting, you’ll forget what I do bad |
| I’m deluded in my mind |
| I do good things and never lie |
| But sometimes our minds can be the liars |
| And that’s why it wasn’t I |
| I’m deluded in my mind |
| I do good things and never lie |
| But sometimes our minds can be the liars |
| And that’s why it wasn’t I |
| So Dave is nothing like me |
| Lydia is nothing like me |
| Steve is nothing like me |
| And Bigfoot, that’s a different story |
| I’m deluded in my mind |
| I do good things and never lie |
| But sometimes our minds can be the liars |
| And that’s why it wasn’t I |
| I’m deluded in my mind |
| I do good things and never lie |
| But sometimes our minds can be the liars |
| And that’s why it wasn’t I |
