lyrics

Martha Curie had a visitor today.
Reminds me of the times my husband came.
Back before he said that he was too lonely
and that he was divorcing me.
William got the car and the city got the house
'Cause it would be 10 years 'till I got out
plus the social worker said I wouldn't be
needing things like that.

Got a feeling all the contracts
Are there for your safety not mine.
They save you from the depth
of human relationships
when you haven't got the staffing
or the time
for hysterics like me.
Why are you staring at me?
You know, I'm not that kind of crazy
where you don't know you're crazy.

I feel like a baby, I feel like a baby
I feel like a baby, with thee.

Got a feeling all the contracts
Are there for your safety not mine.
They save you from the depth
of human relationships
when you haven't got the funding
or the time
for hysterics like me.
Bitch, why are you staring at me?
I know you brought me cake and candy,
But I also know you're poisoning me!

Why would you do that, why would you do that,
Why would you do that, to me?
