Twisted Songtext
von Annie Ross

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 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
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, oh no

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 if you know that you′re a wizard at three?
I knew that this was meant for me


I heard little children were supposed to 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 swinging

They all laughed at a Graham Bell, they all laughed at Edison
And also at 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 just let them 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
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 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
But I said, "Dear doctor, I think that it's you instead
'Cause I have got a thing that′s unique and new
It proves that 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"
