Green Day Lyrics

Basket Case Lyrics

Verse 1-

Do you have the time to listen to me whine
About NOTHING and everything all at once
I am one of those
Melodramatic fools
Neurotic to the bone
No doubt about it
Chorus-

Sometimes I give myself the CREEPS
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm CRACKING UP
Am I just PARANOID?
Am I just STONED
Verse 2-

I went to a shrink
To analyze my dreams
SHE says it's lack of sex that's bringing me down
I went to a whore
SHE said my life's a bore
So quit my whining cause it's bringing HER down
Chorus-

Sometimes I give myself the CREEPS
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm CRACKING UP
Am I just PARANOID?
Bridge-

Grasping to CONTROL
So I BETTER hold on
Chorus-

Sometimes I give myself the CREEPS
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm CRACKING UP
Am I just PARANOID?
Am I just STONED
