Please call a doctor, I've been so depressed
|
That I think that I'm finally breakin'
|
I can't quite explain, I can't feel any pain
|
But I know that this time I'm not fakin'
|
Oh, what can it be, oh, inside of me
|
|
I saw my doctor he said man you look sick
|
He said I think you better do something quick
|
He checked me over and he said I was fit
|
What you need is a change, have a shave, find a chick
|
Your body functions but your hair's a disgrace
|
You shouldn't let it hang all over your face
|
Change your image 'cos you look out of place
|
Comb your hair, put on weight, try to look up to date
|
Why don't you put in some permanent waves
|
You'll look smooth, you'll look cool, you'll be laughing
|
You'll get lots of dates, you'll be made, you'll get laid
|
You'll get out and about, you'll be laughing
|
Oh, you'll be O.K. once you get those permanent waves
|
|
I was really up but now I'm down once again
|
I went out walking and it started to rain
|
My perm washed out it just got flushed down the drain
|
My neurosis returned, I'm a wreck once again
|
But wait 'til I get back my permanent waves
|
I'll be cool, I'll be smooth, I'll be laughing
|
I'll be all the rage in my permanent waves
|
And I'll start a new craze, I'll be laughing
|
Oh, I'll be O.K. once I get my permanent waves
|
