Mental

by Eels

Album: Beautiful freak [#9]

It's like I dressed up in my mama's clothing.
It's like I'm talking to a voice that doesn't exist.

It's like I got a wire crossed upstairs.
But all I want is just a little truth and that's it.

They say I'm mental but I'm just confused.
They say I'm mental but I've been abused.
They say I'm mental 'cause I'm not amused by it all.

Another anchorman is on the TV.
He's got that far-away and vacant look in his eyes.

I turn the channel but nothing is changing.
The only truth is that everything is a lie.

They say I'm mental but I'm just confused.
They say I'm mental but I've been abused.
They say I'm mental 'cause I'm not amused by it all.

There's truth in everything, there's truth in lies.
With all this knowledge, well, I think I'm gonna be wise.

They say I'm mental but I'm just confused.
They say I'm mental but I've been abused.
They say I'm mental 'cause I'm not amused by it all.
Not at all.
Not at all.
Not at all.
Not at all.
Not at all.
