All I need is my music | All I need is my music | ||
To help me make it through the day | To help me make it through the day | ||
Blast to hell all the psychobabble therapy | |||

Try to make me think I'm sick | Try to make me think I'm sick | ||
Just because I crank my buds up really loud | Just because I crank my buds up really loud | ||
Don't mean that I'm a psychotic | Don't mean that I'm a psychotic | ||
Take your drugs and knock yourself out | Take your drugs and knock yourself out | ||

I can sing my blues away (Sing your blues now) | I can sing my blues away (Sing your blues now) | ||
Sing your blues now | Sing your blues now | ||
