Shrink Rap
This is entered in PsycoticMastermind's Rap Sensibly competition.
I go to see the shrink
She greets me with a wink
Tells me to relax
Just hit her with the facts
So I say my daddy drank
And I have him to thank
For getting me on the booze
But that shit's just old news
So I yap about my fears
How I'm inclined to tears
How I just want to be alone
Not pick up the fucking phone
Then there's my sense of doom
When I'm in a crowded room
Just can't bring myself to speak
Without feeling like a freak
Can't get a good night's sleep
'Cause the shadows start to creep
Start to get inside my head
Drag my ass right out of bed
Then she tells me we're out of time
And to forget about the rhyme
Says I'd best lay off the verse
Before my condition becomes worse
Says be sure to take my meds
Maybe pick up some new threads
I say she's dressed to kill
She says she'll send me the bill.
