"Teen Angst"
The Funny Lyrics: 'Cause what the world needs now is another folk singer
Like I need a hole in my head Why They're Funny: You DO need a hole in the head, to breathe. (It should really be "another" hole in my head, but that wouldn't fit the rhythm. Yes, I've heard it said both ways, but I always found this version of the expression funny.)
