The Lyrics

I swear I'm not crazy! Lemme outta here, I'm not mad, I tell you!
Hey (hey)! Why am I
In this straight jacket? Not fair
Hey, hey (hey, hey)! This ain't right
Sure I've not gone spare
They (they) think I'm crazed?
How'd they reach that answer now?
'Fraid ('fraid) that I'm sane
Marbles are still there

This can't be, I don't feel
That my mind has cracked, it's steel
Must escape out of this real
Padded room
Do I seem that insane?
Why have I been locked away?
Sure my brain is fine, okay
Don't need this padded room
Padded room

You (you) tell them that
My neurons are in order
You (you) tell them that
I've a working brain
Dude (dude), find the jerk
Has to be one jerk, you know
Dude (dude), find the piece
Of shit who had me framed

Shouldn't be here, I feel
That I'm fine, this is unreal
Not insane, unfair ordeal
Padded room
Not for me, some mistake
Because I am rather sane
In a rage cause of this cage
Don't need this padded room
Padded room

Shouldn't be
Here, ain't right
Cause I'm sane
Shouldn't be (shouldn't be)
Here, I'm fine (here, I'm fine)
Not insane (not insane)
Don't need this padded room

Sane (sane), yes, I'm sane
Please, I'm sane, swear I'm not nuts
Mate (mate), use your eyes
You'll see it's not fair
Hey (hey)! Listen, I'm
Not mad, want an answer there
Hey (hey)! In your eyes
Is quite the unhinged glare

Shouldn't be here, I feel
You're not fine, you're the real deal
Should replace me here, for real
Padded room
You're a douche to my eyes
Cause you copy my moves, I
Think you might be mad, wait, I
Am you
Padded room

Welp, looks like he just lost an argument to himself, he's mad.

Same here, and I can prove it! I've psychiatric certificates saying I'm totally sane. One from 1977, one from 1981, two from 1987 and 1989, a whole series from the 90s (though the following series from the 00s disappeared in the great open clinic arson fire of 2011) and some odd minor evaluations from inbetween then and up until this year! Being able to prove that you're sane feels great I tells you!
