I think I'm going slightly mad It might be all the dreams I've had It could be all the things I've seen All the things I wish I'd been I'd like to introduce you My friend called Fred, you got one too He's the guy who tells you what to do He's the one who knows better than you I kinda find it hard to sleep So I try my hand at counting sheep But all I got was repetition You can't get to sleep by doing addition My friend called Fred is always right He gets the last word every night But now that really is a pain 'Cause what he says is all the same My imaginary friend Many's the time I wanna k** ya Know I shouldn't really moan But you're always there when I wanna be alone My friend called Fred is never bored He just steals what he can't afford And no he never gets the blame 'Cause he just uses a false name Look at this guy who's stood by me It's obvious he's out his tree He's acting like a crazy man But I think that's part of the plan
