I go to see the shrinks
And one tells me that he thinks
That I’m schizoid, baby, and I wonder if I’m just
Angry with myself.
He gives me drugs to take
And he warns me they might make
Me rude and snappish at my kids and then I’ll be
Angry with myself, oh, oh,
Angry with myself, oh, oh,
Angry with myself
The Lithium just gave me tremors, um,
I’m just angry with myself.
I know I’m not supposed to blame
Myself; I know it’s not a shame
And yet my past suggests
I flunked humanity tests, so now I’m
Angry with myself.
I take Lamictal to stay down
I take Zyprexa not to frown
There’s something else I take
So’s not to stay wake and still I’m
Angry with myself, oh, oh,
Angry with myself, oh, oh,
Angry with myself
Want to commit date rape wearing a Zorro cape
So I’m angry with myself, oh, oh, oh … (fade)
