Maniac Lyrics

It's an overdose for most a shot in the brain Blows your mind like the winds of a hurricane Put you hands to your head to stop the pain And hear a scream louder than a freight train Street sounds merry-go-rounds So up-tight while your mind is windin' down Toss and turn on aa sea of tranquility Crimes of insanity-how many guilty? I can see their blank and dull faces Another episode of how the human race is Sick to death have we lost our senses? I'm mad as hell and I'm not gonna take this They gave you the shaft and you know where they stuck it It's pay back man your head's in a bucket Pull it out look about what am I sayin'? This a pleaa this is no bargain Junkies for TV live in soap opera sitcoms They're cop-outs for dropouts and no minded morons See it you can be it and so it goes on and on Livin' the good life singin' a swan song Hear the news blues pick and choose Try and understand you get more confused Pull the plug it's too much information 24 hours 5 million stations Check it out we've got to change this reel The more we see the less we feel Compassionate passion it's so easy to fake it I'm mad as hell and I'm not gonna take it Payin' dues sellin' shoes Always complainin' and prayin' and sayin', "So what's the use?" It's a zoo the animals are me and you Turnin' tricks jumpin' through a point of view Like change so fantastic More street homes for more and more spastics Outside it's a turning tide And so you learn there's no where no way to turn Back from behind the window Get a dose takin' in the freak show Find the ugly truth that is wisdom A home is a castle a castle can be your prison Anger is your reaction You can use it to take action No time you whine your line is so basic I'm mad as hell and I'm not gonna take it
