[Verse 1]
You're the psychotic daughter of a psychotic mother
Your father was a megalomaniac, you've got an insane brother
Your nurse committed suicide when you tore off her strip
You carry a shooter to parties 'cause you think it's hip

[Chorus]
But it's a pure mania, it stopped being a game
When you found it would take you to the asylum again

[Verse 2]
Well, your uncle was a rich man but he also was a thief
His sister was a dyke thing, went out with girls to get relief
You come on with your "How do you do?"
Honey, I need a drink before I can look at you

[Chorus]
But it's a pure mania, it stopped being a game
When you found it would take you to the asylum again

[Verse 3]
Well, your grandmother was into homicide just for kicks
And your grandfather put peoples' eyes out with a pointed stick
Your whole family seems to be 'round the bend
If I got hitched up with you, it'd be the livin' end
[Chorus 2]
But it's a pure mania, it stopped being a game
When you found it would take you to the asylum again
Well you may not have an asylum, but you sure got 9 to 5
You'd better go and find a doctor, see if you're alive
