Intro
------
verse 1:
DAY AFTER DAY, THEY SEND MY FRIENDS AWAY
TO MANSIONS COLD AND GREY
TO THE FAR SIDE OF TOWN
WHERE THE THIN MEN STALKS THE STREET
WHILE THE SANE STAY UNDERGROUND
DAY AFTER DAY, THEY TELL ME I CAN GO
THEY TELL ME I CAN BLOW
TO THE FAR SIDE OF TOWN
WHERE IT'S POINTLESS TO BE HIGH
'CAUSE IT'S SUCH A LONG WAY DOWN
SO I TELL THEM THAT
chorus:
I CAN FLY, I WILL SCREAM,
I WILL BREAK MY ARM
I WILL DO ME HARM
HERE I STAND, FOOT IN HAND,
TALKING TO MY WALL
I'M NOT QUITE RIGHT AT ALL (AM I?)
DON'T SET ME FREE
I'M AS HAPPY AS CAN BE
JUST MY LIBRIUM AND ME
AND MY E.S.T MAKE THREE
-
FOR I'D RATHER STAY HERE
WITH ALL THE MADMEN
THAN PERISH WITH THE SADMEN ROAMING FREE
YES I'D RATHER PLAY HERE
WITH ALL THE MADMEN
FOR I'M QUITE CONTENT THEY'RE ALL AS SANE AS ME.
-----
silence while verse is read out
verse 3
DAY AFTER DAY, THEY TAKE SOME BRAIN AWAY
AND TURN MY FACE AROUND
TO THE FAR SIDE OF TOWN
AND TELL ME THAT IT'S REAL
THEN ASK ME HOW I FEEL
chorus
finally:
ZANE ZANE ZANE, OUVRE LA CHIEN
ZANE ZANE ZANE, OUVRE LA CHIEN
Keep repeating and fade out
Any criticism is welcome
