Lithium unbalanced up or down,
You might be Mister Hyde, quite snide.
Lithium unbalanced up or down,
Might see the Jekyll side.
'Cause the point of this drug--
To get bipolar thoughts under control good,
So you won't go on a shootin' blast
In your neighborhood.

To keep him at peace, his doctors handed
Him prescription planned to ban-
Ish all of those pesky impulses
That made him a madman.
'Cause the point of this drug--
To get bipolar thoughts under control good
You don't have to shoot it. . .comes in tab
That gets in your blood.

Many a man has tried this out
In lieu of old Nembutal.
The man who's got Lithium balanced,
He's got Lithium balanced,
He's the sedatest of them all.

This drug for a girl can help stave off
Behavior that's schizo. Stay on
It once you've become peaceful;
If you stop, you might get PO'd.
'Cause the point of this drug--
To get bipolar thoughts under control good
So you won't mow folks down with a gat
In your neighborhood.

Not alone, quite crazed, thinking two ways,
One day he saw the light. That a white
And button-like pill could help
Get his bifurcated mind right.
Stem the foment of a whirling mind full blown,
Doing dervish-like turns.
When two minds are chemically severed,
Only one returns.

The ringing in the head's now out,
Under a Lithium pall.
The man who's got Lithium balanced
He's got Lithium balanced
He's the sedatest of them all.
