The Rest of Us
They tell me I'm crazy here
 but I don't believe them
 I think they're the crazy ones
 I mean, how messed up do you
 have to be personally
 to see the insanity in others?
 Maybe we're all a little strange here...
 i don't know
 
 They tell me I need 'professional help'
 but I didn't ask for any
 is it still aid if I don't want it?
 what if the giver needs it more 
 than the recipient? What then?
 Maybe we all need some assistance...
 I really don't know
 
 They tell me I'm broken
 but I don't see any damage
 they're the ones that need to be fixed 
 do they have more parts loose than me?
 Maybe we're all a little defective...
 I swear I don't know
 
 They tell me I have to take my pills
 but I don't need them
 is my brain chemistry the only one who's off?
 I can't be the only one
 Maybe we all need some medication...
 How could I possibly know?
 
 They tell me the straight jacket is for my own good
 but I'm not dangerous
 they are the ones with needles and
 electroshock therapy at their disposal
 am I the one who's harmful? to myself or others?
 Maybe we all could use a little restriction...
 I bet God would know
 
 Do you know?
 Or are you just as crazy as
 the rest of us?
