Rancid - Outta My Mind lyrics

You're working like a monkey who's been
Trained by a sick junkie
On a mission to get money for
A new suit and tie
To wear to a reception where
They envy your reception
And give compliments and praise to
The ones they despise

Practicing your smile in the
Mirror all the while
Trying to cultivate the style of
The bastards in power
We know you're selling
Your nervous twitch is telling
You're coming off smelling like the
Pig of the hour

I got a lot of people telling
Me I'm outta my mind and I don't know why
I got a lot of people telling
Me I'm outta my mind and I don't know why

My brain was bleeding and
My fingers were proceeding
Through a notebook I was keeping
Since the dawning of time
Senses were corroded
You know that I was loaded like a a while

You were dealing
I was reeling from the feeling
And the madness was concealing
It's a siren song
People that Ii trusted would
Surely have me busted
If they ever had a clue on
What was really going on

I got a lot of people telling
Me I'm outta my mind and I don't know why
I got a lot of people telling
Me I'm outta my mind and I don't know why

You're working like a monkey who's been
Trained by a sick junkie
On a mission to get money for
A new suit and tie
To wear to a reception where
They envy your reception
And give compliments and praise to
The ones they despise

Practicing your smile in the
Mirror all the while
Trying to cultivate the style of
The bastards in power i know you're selling
Your nervous twitch is telling
You're coming off smelling like the
Pig of the hour

I got a lot of people telling
Me I'm outta my mind and I don't know why
I got a lot of people telling
Me I'm outta my mind and I don't know why
