Lies

Yesterday I spent an hour
A full hour in therapy
My favorite Doctor Landau
My God, I hate his breath

He asked me questions
That kind of fool deserves a lie
I gave him answers
The kind of answers doctor's like
Yes, I gave him a bunch of lies

I told him all my nightmares
Were dead and gone
"These days I sleep like a baby
And there never ever was a them"

He asked me questions
That kind of fool deserves a lie
I gave him answers
The kind of answers doctor's like

The doctor looked at my eyes
No trace of insanity
Maybe the time is right now
To have a visit from the family
I'm thinking of your mother
What does my little patient say?

I should have taken his stethoscope
And then forced it down his throat
My mother was at stake
So I behaved

That night I cleaned the entire house
For everything but the memories
No dust, no tea, ah, stupid me
I even took the ax away

The sun is up and it's time for bed
Oh, I'm so tired
I can't wait no more
