Bad Voices
(Tom Entrican 10/2/18)
The voices say yes then the voices say no
Tell me what to think and where I should go
Say who I should like and who to avoid
They all talk so loud that I just get annoyed
I have no ideas so the voices lead on
They’ve chiseled my mind till all of it’s gone
They lead to the left and then to right
Fill my mind with worthless thoughts through the night
Don’t think they have my best interests in mind
‘Cause they make me do stupid things all the time
When I take control my ideas they just toss
My own sense of me has been totally lost
The least they could do is help me find my shoes
Instead of useless thoughts like orange flavored glue
Don’t make me drill twenty peep holes in my door
Give me some good stock tips so I won’t be poor
They should not keep saying roll down the stairs
Stop making me carve those bad words in my hair
If the voices in there don’t start treating me kind
I’ll take that pink pill that drives them from my mind
