Next To Normal - Didn't I See This Movie? (feat. Alice Ripley and Louis Hobson) lyrics

rate me

Diana:

Didn't I see this movie,

With McMurphy and the nurse?

The hospital was heavy

But this cuckoo's nest is worse.

And isn't this the one where

In the end the good guys fry?

Didn't I see this movie

And didn't I cry?

Didn't I cry?

Doctor Madden: [Spoken]

The modern procedure's clean and simple.

The electricity is barely enough to light a

hundred-watt bulb.

Diana:

What makes you think

I'd lose my mind for you?

I'm no sociopath.

I'm no Sylvia Plath.

I ain't no Frances Farmer

Kind of find for you...

So stay out of my brain--

I'm no princess of pain.

Didn't I see this movie

Where the doctor looked like you?

Where the patient got impatient

And said "sorry, doc, I'm through.

I know where this is going,

And I know what you're about--

'Cause I have seen this movie

And I walked out."

I walked out.

I'm walking--
