lyrics

We'll See a Psychiatrist (1975-76)

Keep them hiding from me
How are you tonight, fine?
Walking such a straight line
But when mommy goes away
The mouse starts to play
Off with blue jeans get them off this day
When she finds ya' out
She screams for help to the psychiatrist and the priest
As she kneels down to pray she says

We'll see a psychiatrist
We'll hear what he has to say - oh
You need some advice today
He knows the proper therapy

You've been hiding from me and crying sad
Do you think that you are evil, strange and bad?
Close your eyes make a wish
Could you predict the braziers?
As she swears you're all wrong
It made it so hard for me to be strong
But just a short time now
Locked in your bedroom for too-too long

We'll see a psychiatrist
We'll hear what he has to say - oh
You need some advice right away
He knows the proper therapy

Beat me black
Please be cruel
Spoon feed me
With just yahoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
Who's there?
Who's there?
Who's there?
Who's there?
I wanna go home
Who's there?
Who's there?
Who's there?
Who's there?
Who's there?
Who's there?
Who's there?

We'll see a psychiatrist
We'll hear what he has to say - oh
You need some advice right away
He knows the proper therapy

Another couple of minutes
Sometimes they fucking cut it off...
