I think I'm going slightly mad  It might be all the dreams I've had  It could be all the things I've seen  All the things I wish I'd been  I'd like to introduce you  My friend called Fred, you got one too  He's the guy who tells you what to do  He's the one who knows better than you    I kinda find it hard to sleep  So I try my hand at counting sheep  But all I got was repetition  You can't get to sleep by doing addition  My friend called Fred is always right  He gets the last word every night  But now that really is a pain  'Cause what he says is all the same    My imaginary friend  Many's the time I wanna kill ya  Know I shouldn'y moan  But you're always there when I wanna be alone    My friend called Fred is never bored  He just steals what he can't afford  And no he never gets the blame  'Cause he just uses a false name  Look at this guy who's stood by me  It's obvious he's out his tree  He's acting like a crazy man  But I think that's part of the plan
