Basket Case Song Lyrics by Green Day
Do you have the time to listen to me whineAbout nothing and everything all at once?I am one of thoseMelodramatic foolsNeurotic to the boneNo doubt about it
Sometimes I give myself the creepsSometimes my mind plays tricks on meIt all keeps adding upI think I’m cracking upAm I just paranoid?Or am I just stoned?
I went to a shrinkTo analyze my dreamsShe says it’s lack of sex that’s bringing me downI went to a whoreHe said my life’s a boreSo quit my whining ’cause it’s bringing her down
Sometimes I give myself the creepsSometimes my mind plays tricks on meIt all keeps adding upI think I’m cracking upAm I just paranoid?Huh yeah, yeah, yeah(Ooh, ooh)
Grasping to controlSo I better hold on
Sometimes I give myself the creepsSometimes my mind plays tricks on meIt all keeps adding upI think I’m cracking upAm I just paranoid?Or am I just stoned?
