[Intro]
\nWhat’s he thinking?
\n(Without even blinking?)
\nWhat’s he been drinking?
\n(Kool-aid sinking?)<\/p>\n
Look at his face
\n(What a disgrace)
\nTalking so loud
\n(Playing to the crowd)<\/p>\n
[Verse 1]
\nHe says he’s got the answer
\n(Every answer!)
\nHe says he knows the way
\n(He knows the way!)<\/p>\n
But every time the facts arrive
\nHe sends them all away<\/p>\n
He builds himself a little world
\nWhere nothing can go wrong
\nThen anyone who questions it
\n(Just doesn’t belong!)<\/p>\n
[Pre-Chorus]
\nIs it reason?
\n(Is it fear?)
\nIs it something
\n(We should hear?)<\/p>\n
When the warning signs
\nAre plain to see
\nWhy pretend
\n(That they can’t be?)<\/p>\n
[Refrain]
\nWhat’s he thinking?
\n(Musta been kool-aid drinking)
\nSeems a bit mad
\n(Strikingly sad)<\/p>\n
Is his mind sound
\n(For that matter… even found?)
\nBetter look around<\/p>\n
Insanity
\n(Vanity)
\nTragically insane
\n(Lame… inane)<\/p>\n
[Verse 2]
\nHe hears a warning
\n(Calls it noise)
\nHe sees the danger
\n(Calls it choice)<\/p>\n
He takes a little truth
\nAnd twists it out of shape
\nThen wonders why the evidence
\n(Just won’t escape!)<\/p>\n
A mirror on the wall
\nReflecting what he wants to see
\nBut the image keeps on changing
\n(Back to reality!)<\/p>\n
[Chorus]
\nWhat’s he thinking?
\n(What’s he thinking?)
\nMaybe we should ask
\nWhat’s he drinking?
\n(What’s he drinking?)
\nBefore we give him the task<\/p>\n
Of deciding for the many
\nWhat the many ought to do
\nWhen the consequences
\n(Come back through!)<\/p>\n
[Bridge]
\nInsanity!
\n(Vanity!)<\/p>\n
Certainty!
\n(Reality!)<\/p>\n
Look around!
\n(Listen up!)<\/p>\n
When the facts come knocking
\n(Will you begin… to let them in?)<\/p>\n
Or lock the door
\nAnd turn away?
\n(Once more…)
\n… another day<\/p>\n
[Break]
\nIs his mind sound
\n(For that matter… even found?)
\nBetter look around<\/p>\n
Insanity
\n(Vanity)
\nTragically insane
\n(Lame…)
\nReally quite a shame)<\/p>\n
[Instrumental, Psychedelic Jam]

\n[Whistle solo]<\/p>\n
[Final Chorus]
\nWhat’s he thinking?
\n(Musta been kool-aid drinking)
\nSeems a bit mad
\n(Strikingly sad)<\/p>\n
Is his mind sound
\n(For that matter… even found?)
\nBetter look around<\/p>\n
Insanity
\n(Vanity)
\nTragically insane
\n(Lame… never to regain)<\/p>\n
[Outro]
\n[Refrain]
\nWhat’s he thinking?
\n(Too much drinking)
\n… kool-aid…
\n(and throwing shade)<\/p>\n
Gone bloody mad
\n(Tragically sad)<\/p>\n
Unkind… his mind
\n(Never to be found?)
\n… too late to look around<\/p>\n
