A Schizophrenic Twist Lyrics - Singles - Lemon Demon

Something wasn't right 

I barely slept all through the night 

And when the morning came 

I was lying outside in the rain 

The spiky nail of darkness 

Burrowed straight into my heart 

I tried to use a crowbar 

But I only pulled myself apart 

I'm easily amused enough 

To make it through the day 

I'm random and confused enough 

To be in total disarray 

Tell me that I'm all alone 

In thinking that I'm all alone 

I'm so completely on my own 

That everything's OK 

I might be on to something 

(Schizophrenic twist) 

I might just be on something 

(Schizophrenic twist) 

But something's telling me 

And don't believe a word of this 

But music sounds much better 

With a schizophrenic twist 

Carbonated sugar water 

Flowing through my veins 

I stole a ten-speed bike 

And I let my spirit take the reins 

Everybody tells me 

That I shouldn't go outside 

Then again, they also claim that 

Elvis Presley really died 

Alcoholic drinks are not the answer 

Nor are drugs or racketballs 

The only satisfying 

Way to sort your feelings out 

Is grab a pen and write some lyrics 

Maybe MTV will hear it 

You could be the next big star 

Don't even need to play guitar 

I might be on to something 

(Schizophrenic twist) 

I might just be on something 

(Schizophrenic twist) 

But something's telling me 

And don't believe a word of this 

But music sounds much better 

With a schizophrenic twist 

[Sampled screaming] 

[Neil screaming] 

Something wasn't right 

I barely slept all through the night 

And when the morning came 

I was lying outside in the rain 

The spiky nail of darkness 

Burrowed straight into my heart 

I tried to use a crowbar 

But I only pulled myself apart 

I might be on to something 

(Schizophrenic twist) 

I might just be on something 

(Schizophrenic twist) 

But something's telling me 

And don't believe a word of this 

But music sounds much better 

With a guitar. 

I admit it. 

[Sobbing] I admit it...
