Lyrics
HEAD CASE
Words & Music by RON PATTON
Verse # 1:
I wanted us to be so special
But we were each on a different level
We never were a box office draw
What we had I thought was fine
You saw it as a daily grind
One day more would be the final straw
1st Pre-Chorus:
There's no need for me announcing to the Press
'Cause the next move that you're gonna make ain't hard to guess
Verse # 2:
You cut right through with your chain saw
Leaving me like a cat declawed
You couldn't wait to flush me down the drain
Never bothered looking back
You wished that we would fade to black
And become like strangers on a plane
2nd Pre-Chorus:
There's no need for me announcing to the Press
That all the pain you like to hand out should be laid to rest
CHORUS:
I'm just a HEAD CASE, HEAD CASE
Thinkin' 'bout you
I'm only gum underneath your shoe
I'm just a HEAD CASE, HEAD CASE
That's my excuse
Just a HEAD CASE you want to lose
Verse # 3:
I believed in us as you faked along
A Hallmark Card with words all wrong
Got a failing grade on my acid test
I let you make me feel dirt cheap
Until I had to dig down deep
I've fin'ly made my mis'ry leave the nest
3rd Pre-Chorus:
There's no need for me announcing to the Press
That all the pain you like to hand out should be laid to rest
3rd CHORUS:
I'm just a HEAD CASE, HEAD CASE
Thinkin' 'bout you
I'm only gum underneath your shoe
I'm just a HEAD CASE, HEAD CASE
That's my excuse
Just a HEAD CASE you want to lose
[INSTRUMENTAL BREAK....]
4th Pre-Chorus:
There's no need for me to announcing to the Press
'Cause now I see you're such a bitch - you're no Princess
4th CHORUS:
I'm not your HEAD CASE, HEAD CASE
Ain't thinkin' 'bout you
You're only gum underneath my shoe
You're just a HEAD CASE, HEAD CASE
What's your excuse?
Just a HEAD CASE I need to lose
You're just a HEAD CASE, HEAD CASE
Ain't thinkin' 'bout you
You're only gum underneath my shoe
You're just a HEAD CASE, HEAD CASE
There's no excuse
Just a HEAD CASE I'm glad to lose
