Joni Mitchell lyrics : "Twisted"

My !@#^yst told me
That I was right out of my head
The way he described it

He said I'd be better dead than live
I didn't listen to his jive
I knew all along

That he was all wrong
And I knew that he thought
I was crazy but I'm not

Oh no

My !@#^yst told me

That I was right out of my head
He said I'd need treatment
But I'm not that easily led

He said I was the type
That was most inclined
When out of his sight

To be out of my mind
And he thought I was nuts
No more ifs or ands or buts


They say as a child
I appeared a little bit wild

With all my crazy ideas
But I knew what was happening
I knew I was a genius...

What's so strange when you know
That you're a wizard at three
I knew that this was meant to be


Now I heard little children
Were supposed to sleep tight

That's why I got into the vodka one night
My parents got frantic
Didn't know what to do

But I saw some crazy scenes
Before I came to
Now do you think I was crazy

I may have been only three
But I was swinging


They all laugh at angry young men
They all laugh at Edison
And also at Einstein

So why should I feel sorry
If they just couldn't understand
The idiomatic logic

That went on in my head
I had a brain
It was insane

Oh they used to laugh at me
When I refused to ride
On all those double decker buses

All because there was no driver on the top

My !@#^yst told me

That I was right out of my head
But I said dear doctor
I think that it's you instead

Because I have got a thing
That's unique and new
To prove it I'll have

The last laugh on you
'Cause instead of one head
I got two

And you know two heads are better than one.
