The Lyrics

Do you have the time
To listen to me whine
About nothing and something all at once
I am one of those
Overdramatic fools
ironic to the bone no doubt about it

Sometimes I give my friends the creeps
Sometimes my mom plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid
I cant be stoned

I went to a shrink
To analyze my dreams
She says it's just my ex
That's bringing me down
I went to a whore
tHey say my life's a bore
So quit my whining cause
It's bringing them down

Sometimes I give my friends the creeps
Sometimes my mom plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid
I cant be stoned


Grasping to control
So I better hold on

Sometimes I give my friends the creeps
Sometimes my mom plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid
I cant be stoned

544, good, but needs alittle tweaking.
Huh? - April 18, 2006 - Report this comment
Poor. This is barely different to the original song, and the (few) changes you have made have rendered it nonsensical. Must try harder

Dude, this a parody site, not a lyrics site.
Red Ant - April 19, 2006 - Report this comment
The title had promise, and this could have worked fine as a misheard lyrics parody where non-sensical is to be expected. However, this fails as a parody since only 5% of the words were changed. Sorry, no vote.

5 for pacing due to the fact that this is pretty much identical to the original. You need to be more creative.
