lyrics

Ball with no bounce

When the weakness in your body makes you want to cry
And it just gets worse the more you try
You’re losing the words, concentration is shot
You’re fingers are icy but your head is hot
When you tell me your head is glued to the bed
When you cannot remember what was just said
When the slightest glow of light is much too bright
And you’ve had another hopeless sleepless night
What makes them think you need a shrink
What makes them think you need a shrink to make you better

Like a ball with no bounce, like a cat with no pounce
Your energy just fades away
We wish someone knew what they need to do
To put right what is wrong with you (put right what is wrong with you)

When your body is aching and your throat is so sore
And your brain fog’s so bad you can’t talk any more
When your head is reeling and your eyes are half closed
And the lousy feeling in your stomach just grows
What makes them think you need a shrink
What makes them think you need a shrink to make you better

Psychiatrists say that you’re really OK
We just need to retrain your brain
With some CBT or with NLP
And we’ll soon have you right as rain (soon have you right as rain)

When the weakness in your body makes you want to cry
And it just gets worse the more you try
When your body is aching and your throat is so sore
And your brain fog’s so bad you can’t talk any more
What makes them think you need a shrink
What makes them think you need a shrink to make you better
What makes them think you need a shrink
What makes them think you need a shrink to make you better
