Basket Case (demo) Songtext
von Green Day

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

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 or am I just stoned?

I went to a shrink, to analyze my dreams
She said it's lack of sex that′s bringing me down
I went to a whore, he said my life's a bore
So quit my whining 'cause it′s bringing her down


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?
I don't know

Grasping to control
So I better hold on

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?
Or am I just stoned?
