Back into the driveway with my white Subaru
Pop open the back
I've got some unpacking to do
One trip to Costco
Man they got everything
Haul it all inside and then I'll drive myself insane
I'm sick and tired of breaking boxes down all the time
There's got to be an artist somewhere down inside
So I'll see you on the other side
Goodbye everyone
It's how a genius works
It's how these things are done
Gonna lock myself inside my room
I won't come out of my cocoon
At least not until my masterpiece is through
And when I finally do
I'll wear a scarf, mark my words
All your heads are gonna turn
I'll drive myself...
Insane
I'll drive myself insane and then
Things are gonna change
It must be up there in my brain
So, I'll drive myself insane
I'll start drinking absinthe
'Cause normal people don't
I'll cut off one of my ears
On second thought, I won't
It's not me who's average
It's the world instead
I know that I'm special
My mamma always said
Gonna lock myself inside my room
I won't come out of my cocoon
At least not until my masterpiece is through
And when I finally do emerge
I'll wear a scarf, mark my words
All your heads are gonna turn
I'll drive myself...
Insane
I'll drive myself insane and then
Things are gonna change
It must be up there in my brain
So, I'll drive myself insane
It said in my last performance review
That I was unexceptional, that I don't follow through
Screw my stupid co-workers
They don't understand
Screw my stupid manager and his improvement plan
I blame my mediocrity on missed opportunity
A lifetime of stability has kept me from my muse
But I bought a brand new sharpie pen to scribble on the walls so I can
Drum up some demons and then chase 'em round the room
Gonna lock myself inside my room
I won't come out of my cocoon
At least not until my masterpiece is through
And when I finally do emerge
I'll wear a scarf, mark my words
All your heads are gonna turn
I'll drive myself...
Insane
I'll drive myself insane and then
Things are gonna change
It must be up there in my brain
So, I'll drive myself insane
I'll drive myself insane
Then you'll all say
It's such a shame
We ignored him
'Cause now he's so dang interesting
And I'll say things
Like "The rain in Spain
Falls mainly on the plains"
The plane, the plane
Boss, the plane!
Oh,that show is on again
It's so distracting
I can't drive my self insane
