Off In A Dream World

[drug_wench]

Everyone has a problem or two
No one is perfect, they say
Yet I as a child was pretty and smart
I seemed perfect in every which way
The thing that annoyed all the grown-ups
The thing that seemed 'bad' about me
Was the fact I was off in a dream world
My shrink says I have 'ADD'
When other kids looked at the teacher
Who taught education, of course
I would be sketching or dreaming
Of going and seeing my horse
When I could be naughty and fiddle
Or talk to the one 'horsey' kid
That sat in my class in the fifth form
You betcha that's just what I did!
The other kids weren't all that fond of me
I talked a lot, I was obsessive
I got into pot, speed and opiates
And soon was just sad and aggressive
Today I still live in a dream world
If I try I still can't concentrate
Background noise makes it much worse
Yeah, noise is one thing that I hate!
I'd tried giving up on my horses
At school, to improve concentration
When I left school I went to a doctor
Who put me on gross medication
But these days it all doesnt worry me
I'm dreamy and hyped but that's cool
I'm happy - I'm giving up drugs
And who needs that shitty old school!
