Come and go Insane With Me
Tom Wilson
I identified a black ink blot
As a gall bladder cancer cell
I associated Viet Nam with jungle rot
And my fat shrink’s countenance fell
You’re paranoid, he
uttered clinically
Coming apart in pieces and bits
And your personality acts schizophrenically
In between your conniption fits
So I was locked in the
psycho ward
Where they made me gobble dope
Where a zombie was hung with plastic cord
On account of a shortage of rope
In five weeks they
judged me fit
To be a society member again
I shudder at the encore I’ll get
If caught committing some crazy sin
I tell this to you baby
And hope you’ll understand
And like me and kiss me and maybe
Date me and hold my hand
If you too think I’m
crazy
One card short of a deck
Join me with mind gone hazy
Or I’ll stay a nervous wreck
Come and go insane with
me
Jump into my brain with me
Follow and feel no pain with me
Be my queen and reign with me
Board this midnight train with me
Walk this lonely lane with me
Go against the grain
with me
Dance in manic rain with me
Cross this windswept plain with me
Be a whooping crane with me
Laugh and act insane with me
Pilot this swerving plane with me
Come and go insane with me
Over reach of tired
reality
We’ll unfold wings and fly
Far from effects of causality
We’re soar unhindered high
Lightning struck our
minds aware
Shocked bodies and souls awake
Thunder calls and you are there
The storm joins the love we make
If we get tired and
bored with it all
We’ll play out the ultimate thrill
I’ll gun you down watch you fall
Then grinning another I’ll kill
Come and go insane with
me
Be my Calamity Jane with me
Act in utter disdain with me
Swim off the shores of Maine with me
Sing “You’re So Vain” with me
Be the bane of the sane with me
Fight like Mad Anthony
Wayne with me
Come hither raising cane with me
Sing a wild refrain with me
Be a viral strain with me
A lioness and shake my mane with me
Or an Abel killing Cain with me
Or cleanly slice a vein with me
Come and go insane with me.
