Lyrics
INSANE
1.
As insane as a child with a little brain
With a nerve and a curve and a bloodstain
When he was young, his mama threw him down the drain
She whacked him up with a broken cane
And again and again, he got a bloodstain
He tried to refrain from goin' to the lane
Where the sane would see him and stop playin'
'Cos he's me and I'm gone, I'm gone insane
CHORUS
Insane yeah, yeah
(Insanity, hypermentality, what you feel is not what you see)
Insane yeah, yeah
(Everybody just be like me and follow my insanity)
2.
As insane as a child with a little brain
With a nerve and a curve and a bloodstain
When he was young, he used to complain
About the same rain on the plain
Stoppin' him from the shame
While he's running to start sprayin'
On the walls in the morning
Breaking the rules and the warnings
Insane as can be, no stoppin'
'Cos he's me and I'm gone, I'm gone insane
(CHORUS)
3.
As insane as a child with a little brain
With a nerve and a curve and a bloodstain
When he was young he used to keep on worryin'
Startin' the fights till the phone rings
And doin' all the insane things
Confessing for his sins, infesting his own limbs
'Cos he's me and I'm gone, I'm gone insane
(BRIDGE)
See me now, I go round the corner
Haulers, brawlers, new goners
Hoppin' on the things that come harm us
Till we find out we're all pinyatas
Hit us, split us, tear us apart
Insanity inside my heart
Take me out to the new level
Insane me and you the rebel
I'm just one and you're so many
Tell me when you're gonna be ready
Scare me, tell me, give me a start
In my insane brain
Knock, knock, comin' to kill you
Insane Doc comin' to thrill you
I'm insane with all the voodoo
You and me got something to do
Shock us hard until we're Zulus
Insane yeah, yeah
Insane
