lyrics

Terry Sharper wants to be my friend, he's not right in the head, he went upstate again
And when I visit he is strapped to the bed singing Portishead, it doesn't sound too bad
He said the army tried to steal his house, don't know what that's about but at least he is talking

Playing checkers in the living room they gave him space to move they think he's doing better
The nurse said Terry could be leaving soon due to his change in mood and a new disposition
Prescription Thorazine is all he needs and if he stays routine then he'll be out forever

Terry way to go!

He wouldn't take his pills, he said they're meant to kill
Over our dinner date where Terry smashed my plate
He said to go outside and I was to oblige
And Terry followed me and Terry beat me up in the street

The police they came
and took Terry away
And I hope to god
that they don't let Terry out again
