Well, I can tell by the way you take your infusion   You've spent some time in a mental institution   What a dream, life would seem if only   They let you keep your etch-a-sketch      Eh, you laugh like a banshee, gesticulate your delirium   They treat you like a corpse, keep you full of candy lithium   What a dream life would seem if only you could see   The world from inside an etch-a-sketch      I can tell by the way you reach your conclusions   You're the director of a mental institution   What a dream, life would seem if only   It hadn't been for Doctor B      Animate yourself an alternate reality   Consummate a self pleasing artificiality   You can have yourself a tea      I can tell by the way you take your infusion   You've spent some time in a mental institution   Oh, what a dream life would seem if only you could see   The world from inside an etch-a-sketch
