I Wanna Be Committed - Sweet

I thought I was a space age cowboy

I thought I was a sweet and sour chow-boy

I thought I was a thinker

A juvenile drinker

I thought I had some kind of a brain

'Til they told me I just a rumour

A cheap and nasty looner

As it turned out, I was just insane

I wanna be committed

Insanity permitted

I wanna be committed for my mind

I wanna be committed

Don’t let me be remitted

I wanna be committed if you don’t mind

At the dance last Saturday night

I was rockin' and rollin' and holding her tight

'Til he got his hands on her

But when he started out to play

She kept pushing him away

And he got a funny feeling

He was walking on the ceiling

And someone was heard to say, «If you don’t mind, sir»

I don’t mind

I thought I was a teenage dream boy

With a brain made of solid plastic alloy

I thought I was a tripper

Ain’t nobody hipper

'Til it turned out I was going down the drain

I wanna be committed

Insanity permitted

I wanna be committed for my mind

I wanna be committed

Don’t let me be remitted

I wanna be committed if you don’t mind

I wanna be committed

Insanity permitted

I wanna be committed for my mind

I wanna be committed

I wanna be committed

I wanna be committed for my mind
