Green Day
Basket Case (Cassette Demo)
[Verse 1: Billie Joe Armstrong with Mike Dirnt]
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: Billie Joe Armstrong with Mike Dirnt]
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?
[Verse 2: Billie Joe Armstrong with Mike Dirnt]
And I went to a shrink
To analyze my dreams
She says it's lack of sex that's bringing me down
And I went to a whore
She said my life's a bore
So quit my whining 'cause it's bringing her down
[Chorus: Billie Joe Armstrong with Mike Dirnt]
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?
Huh yeah, yeah
[Bridge: Billie Joe Armstrong with MikeDirnt]
Grasping to control
So I better hold on
[Chorus: Billie Joe Armstrong with Mike Dirnt]
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?
Huh yeah, yeah
