Basket Case - Warren Zevon

My baby is a basket case:

A bipolar mama in leather and lace;

Face like an angel, she’s a perfect waste

My baby is a basket case

Dracula’s daughter, Calamity Jane

Smoke on the water, water on the brain:

She’s pretty as a picture and totally crazed;

My baby is a basket case

She’s gonna make a madman outta me

She’s gonna make a madman outta me!

She’s manic-depressive and schizoid, too

The friskiest psycho that I ever knew;

We’re paranoid lovers lost in space

My baby is a basket case

My baby’s gonna celebrate:

I’m being dragged through the nuthouse gates

Got my straitjacket on and I’m taking her place:

My baby is a basket case

She finally made a madman outta me

She finally made a madman outta me

My baby made a madman outta me

She finally made a madman outta me
