Lithium did a job on me
Now i am a real sickie
Psychiatrist said to take these pills
Before mania ensues
I can't sleep -im lucky to dose
Im psychotic -i suppose
Insanity or a zombie-which do i choose
Chemical straightjacket-lithium overdose
My body can't take any more abuse
I thrashed it for years-i got no excuse
My brain just blew another fuse
Chemical straightjacket-lithium overdose
