Do you have the time to listen to me whine about nothing and everything all at once?

I am one of those melodramatic fools; neurotic, to the bone, no doubt about it.

*Chorus*
A5 B5 E5
Sometimes I give myself the creeps.
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me.
It all keeps adding up.
E5 E D C#m
I think I'm cracking up
A5 B5 E5
Am I just paranoid? Am I just stoned?

I went to a shrink to analyze my dreams. She says it's lack of sex that's bringing me down.
