Trying to find the words to write this song It might seem funny and a little wrong I swear that I'm sincere But ridicule and laughter might be all you hear I'll claim it anyway Can't keep it locked inside another day Believe me when I say Don't wanna lose my mind like Gary Busey did Once upon a time he was the same as you and me But if I lose my mind like Gary Busey did Promise me you'll be around to keep me company Don't want my words to be misunderstood Twisted 'round until they're just no good But still I'll muddle through Even though the tune might not appeal to you Can't see no other way It's just a silly song, well then okay I'll sing it anyway Don't wanna lose my mind like Gary Busey did
Once upon a time he was the same as you and me But if I lose my mind like Gary Busey did Promise me you'll be around to keep me company So while he's sailing out beyond the moon I'd like to take this time to end my tune And find a place to land Nothing left to say now that I've tipped my hand It's probably for the best Here's hoping you can finish up the rest Just glad it's off my chest I don't wanna lose my mind like Gary Busey did Once upon a time he was the same as you and me But if I lose my mind like Gary Busey did Promise me you'll be around to keep me company Promise me you'll be around to keep me company Promise me you'll be around to keep me company
