I Wanna Be Committed

I wanna be committed



I wanna be committed



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 was just a rumor



A cheap and nasty looner



Well, 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



Well, at the dance last Saturday night



He was a rockin' and a rollin'



And holding her tight



'Till 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, there ain't nobody hipper



But 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
