Teenage Madman Lyrics

Teenage Madman, drinking wine in the woods

Teenage Madman, forgetting all that's good, good

Teenage Madman, all hopped up again

Teenage Madman, thinks this is the end

You can call me Patient Jack

That's what they called me when I checked in

Bound with locks all up my back

This shit has left me all wild and thin

Here I am to turn the tide

Life is a ride and I got to get off

There's nowhere left you can hide

Not enough pills left to cure my cough

Teenage Madman, drinking wine in the woods

Teenage Madman, forgotten all he could, could

Teenage Madman, all hopped up again

Teenage Madman, knows this is the end

Who would fall for Patient Jack

I'm too far gone to be saved this time

Making up for what I lack

Resorting to some cheap sex and crime

Now it all has been destroyed

No reason left for me to call your bluff

I'm staring into the void

Sure hope this rope is strong enough

Teenage Madman, standing up on a chair

Teenage Madman, makes one last somber prayer, prayer

Teenage Madman, hears the angels sing

But then he stops, he hears his phone ring

Don't you know how much we care

Running our hands through your hair

Please listen to what we say

There's always another way

Oh Patient Jack, we have your back

They call you patient cause you

Always shine through, you can escape this fate

Cause you choose to wait

So can you, just can you wait a bit longer

Surely you'll, by then you'll be a bit stronger

Nobody, as you see can be forced to stay

Keep your stance, take a chance on another day

One more try for Patient Jack

Times can not always be so great

Making up for what I lack

Not giving up and choosing to wait
