The Streets - Deluded In My Mind lyrics
[The Streets - Deluded In My Mind lyrics]
Absolutely Dame Judy Dench
My condition is a delusion
Created to escape my blame
And Dave thinks Glaswegian
Police are superheroes
Which his brain may have created
When the railings rattle in a
Mad bit of Glasgow
The police make him feel safer
So his condition is a delusion
Based on fear, it seems, mainly
But that's nothing like me
Deluded in my mind
I do good things and never lie
But sometimes our minds can be the liars
And that's why it wasn't I
I'm deluded in my mind
I do good things and never lie
But sometimes our minds can be the liars
And that's why it wasn't I
But Lydia is nothing like me
She's really unlucky in life, see
She's prone to getting into a tight squeeze
She's broken seven bones in her life, see
There's no condition of delusion
When it comes to Lydia at all
I thought I might be deluded
'cause her tale is ruddy unbelievable
A dislocated shoulder and a stolen car
And a whole steal more
Her condition is of no delusion
Lydia is real to the core
But that's nothing like me either
I'm deluded in my mind
I do good things and never lie
But sometimes our minds can be the liars
And that's why it wasn't I
I'm deluded in my mind
I do good things and never lie
But sometimes our minds can be the liars
And that's why it wasn't I
Steve, I think he might just be like me
I felt that his mind might be lying
Something about him didn't quite fit
This is why I'm really like Steve
Steve's opinion is a conclusion
That a road can curse it's drivers
Which, initially, I figured was either stupid
Or, at best, his mind was mad
But how can I say he's stupid
When the thing about delusions
Is that I wouldn't know I was mad?
Steve's only condition is that it's
My opinion he's deluded but maybe I am?
So there's no way to tell delusions
From the concrete given facts
Maybe the common consensus
Is actually just madness
Maybe the wacky madman is actually not mad
And maybe if I carry on shouting
You'll forget what I did bad
I'm deluded in my mind
I do good things and never lie
But sometimes our minds can be the liars
And that's why it wasn't I
I'm deluded in my mind
I do good things and never lie
But sometimes our minds can be the liars
And that's why it wasn't I
So Dave is nothing like me
Lydia is nothing like me
Steve is nothing like me
And Bigfoot, that's a different story
I'm deluded in my mind
I do good things and never lie
But sometimes our minds can be the liars
And that's why it wasn't I
I'm deluded in my mind
I do good things and never lie
But sometimes our minds can be the liars
And that's why it wasn't I
My condition is a delusion
Created to escape my blame
And Dave thinks Glaswegian
