ฟังเพลงInstitutionalized

Sometimes I try to do things

And it just doesn't work out the way I want it to

And I get real frustrated

It's like I try hard to do it

And I take my time

But it just doesn't work out the way I want it to

It's like I concentrate on it real hard

But it just doesn't work out

And everything I do and everything I try

It never turns out

It's like I need time to figure these things out

There's always someone there going

Hey mike you know

We've been noticing you've been having a lot of problems lately you

Know

You should maybe get away

And like maybe you should talk about it

You'd feel a lot better

I go no it's okay you know I'll figure it out

Just leave me alone I'll figure it out you know

I'm just working on myself

And they go well you know if you wanna talk about it

I'll be here ya know

And you'll probably feel a lot better if ya talked about it

So why dontcha talk about it

I go no I don't want to I'm okay I'll figure it out myself

But they just keep buggin' me

They just keep buggin' me

And it builds up inside

So you're gonna be institutionalized

You'll come out brainwashed with bloodshot eyes

You won't have any say

They'll brainwash you until you see their way

I'm not crazy institution

You're the one who's crazy institution

You're driving me crazy institution

They stuck me in an institution

Said it was the only solution

To give me the needed professional help

To protect me from the enemy myself

Uh I was in my room

And I was just like staring at the wall thinking 'bout everything

But then again I was thinking about nothing

And then my mom came in

And I didn't even know she was there

She called my name

But I didn't hear her

Then she started screaming mike mike

And I go what what's the matter

She goes what's the matter with you

I go there's nothin' wrong mom

She goes don't tell me that you're on **s

I go no mom I'm not on **s

I'm okay I'm just thinking you know

Why don't ya give me a pepsi

She goes no you're on **s

I go mom I'm okay I'm just thinking

She goes no you're not thinking you're on **s

Normal people don't act in that way

I go mom just give me a pepsi please

All I want is a pepsi

And she wouldn't give it to me

All I wanted was a pepsi

Just one pepsi

And she wouldn't give it to me

Just a pepsi

They give you a white shirt with long sleeves

Tied around your back you're treated like thieves

Drug you up because they're lazy

It's too much work to help a crazy

I'm not crazy institution

You're the one who's crazy institution

You're driving me crazy institution

They stuck me in an institution

Said it was the only solution

To give me the needed professional help

To protect me from the enemy myself

I was sitting in my room

My mom and my dad came in

So they pull up a chair and they sat down

They go mike we need to talk to you

And I go okay what's the matter

They go me and your mom

We've been noticing lately you've been having a lot of problems

And you've been going off for no reason

And we're afraid you're gonna hurt somebody

We're afraid you're gonna hurt yourself

So we decided that it would be in your best interest

If we put you somewhere

Where you could get the help that you need

And I go wait what are ya talking about

We decided

My best interest

How do you know what my best interest is

How can you say what my best interest is

And what are ya trying ta say I'm crazy

When I went to your schools

I went to your churches

I went to your institutional learning facilities

So how can ya say I'm crazy

They say they're gonna fix my brain

Alleviate my suffering and my pain

But by the time they fix my head

Mentally I'll be dead

I'm not crazy institution

You're the one who's crazy institution

You're driving me crazy institution

They stuck me in an institution

Said it was the only solution

To give me the needed professional help

To protect me from the enemy myself

Doesn't matter I'll probably get hit by a car anyway
