# HAPPY TRIP INSANE *(American 1950s Psycho Rock’n’Roll)* ## INTRO (vinyl crackle, screaming guitar) WOOOH ! I’m losing my mind tonight ! Yeah ! Somebody stop me ! ⸻ ## VERSE 1 I’m losing my mind and I got every right You can’t watch me living like this every night Holding back this madness ? No baby not anymore There’s something wild breaking loose inside my soul I can’t hold this fire in my brain Feels like a runaway train People saying : “Boy you’ve gone insane” But I never felt so alive till she came Then one night she walked my way Boom ! My whole world blew away Like lightning falling from the sky That little woman changed my life ⸻ ## CHORUS HAPPY TRIP ! She got me outta control ! HAPPY TRIP ! Yeah she’s burning my soul ! Better than whiskey ! Better than pills ! This crazy little woman Gives me dangerous thrills ! HAPPY TRIP ! I’m going insane tonight ! WOOOH ! ⸻ ## VERSE 2 Now they locked me in the madhouse baby Doctors say I’m crazy lately But they don’t understand true love They just see a man falling apart Before her I never felt this way This fever growing stronger every day Bad trips ? Yeah I had a few But this one baby feels brand new My whole life strips down slow Like a dancer at a midnight show I need her like a drug in my veins Without her I go completely insane Treatment for my loneliness Injection of pure happiness And every night she ain’t around I feel my whole world breaking down ⸻ ## CHORUS HAPPY TRIP ! She got me screaming all night ! HAPPY TRIP ! Yeah she’s dynamite ! Fever in my bloodstream ! Fire in my bones ! This little crazy woman Turned my heart to stone ! HAPPY TRIP ! I’m going insane tonight ! WOOOH ! ⸻ ## VERSE 3 Then came that goddamn choice Between me… And another boy… She didn’t say yes But she didn’t say no And that silence nearly killed my soul I was jealous and losing control Drowning my brain in rock’n’roll I thought there was only one way out A crazy scream and a loaded gun I wanted to drive up there that night Shoot him down in cold blood under neon lights Or maybe end myself instead Cause who would miss me if I was dead ? Sirens screaming in the rain Laughing at myself like a man insane And now look where I belong baby… Back home… In the psycho ward ! ⸻ ## FINAL CHORUS (big explosive finale) HAPPY TRIP ! I finally lost my mind ! HAPPY TRIP ! Yeah love made me go blind ! Straight jacket rock’n’roll ! Crazy in my bones ! This little deadly woman Took complete control ! HAPPY TRIP ! WELCOME TO THE INSANE HOTEL ! HAPPY TRIP ! BABY BURNING IN HELL ! WOOOOOOOH ! ⸻ ## OUTRO (guitar feedback fading) “Patient number 27… Still in love… Still dangerous…”
