I Went To The Mirror Lyrics

  In a voice soaked with euphoria:
  
  I went to the mirror this morning
  I looked in the mirror instead
  The first thing to come into focus
  Was a face wrapped all around my head
  There's something sticking out of the middle
  I guess it's my nose (I suppose)
  I just don't recognize those eyes
  All these years I've been watching from the other side
  
  The voice is now one of brutal stupefication. The underlying question is - "If 
  you went crazy, would you know it?"
  
  Uh oh, here I go thinking them crazy thoughts again.
  Who is that there? You mean I been walking around
  in that all these years? What's it all about?
  Where's it all at? I don't want to get heavy but
  what am I doing here? uh
  
  My lip has a dark spot upon it
  (The voice of a mature adult who's comprehensive
  capacity has suddenly been reduced to that of a
  cherrystone clam)
  My teeth look like plastic in chips
  And there on my chin I discover
  One lonely red and arrogant zit
  I went about my business this morning
  You got to get out of bed and make that bread
  But try as I may to get away
  I won't forget what I seen in the mirror today
  
  Boogie on out to a brand new day.
  Get off your back and dance!
  
  I seen my eyes. I seen my nose. My lips. My teeth.
  My, my gums. I seen my gums! I looked all the way
  down my throat! I looked at my ears. I looked real
  hard at my ears. I looked at my hair. I think I'm going
  bald. I had hair all over the sink or something...
