When anger damages the wholesome man
When the shrink guy tells me that it s all for the best
And my feelings are damaged in emotion wars
And I take everything and I want more

I smell all the roses and they make me sneeze
The animals hiss in the green, green trees
So maybe all that the world s got to offer me is psychoanalysis

You know that the way through life is through a smile
Hell, I've got that, I've been sick for a while
But the pain is good and I should know
The money I give pays off their college loans

I smell all the roses and they make me sneeze
I stop and I suffer and they laugh at me
So maybe the best that I'm ever going to get is a little bit of therapy

The animals hiss in the green, green trees
I stop while they laugh and throw stones at me
So nature's creatures gonna mock me 'til I go to a psychiatrist

Just a little more of this captive play
And Shakespeare told me that all life's a stage
With my conscience free and my unconscience, too
You tell me that I'm crazy but I think that I am you!
