Eels - The Deconstruction
Eels’ find themselves flourishing once again, with E. looking outwards rather than inwards on ‘The Deconstruction’.
Lyrics
Mental
[Verse 1]
It's like I'm dressed up in my mama's clothing
It's like I'm talking to a voice that doesn't exist
It's like I got a wire crossed upstairs
But all I want is just a little truth and that's it
[Chorus]
They say I'm mental but I'm just confused
They say I'm mental but I've been abused
They say I'm mental 'cause I'm not amused by it all
[Verse 2]
Another anchorman is on the TV
He's got that far away and vacant look in his eyes
I turn the channel but nothing is changing
The only truth is that everything is a lie
[Chorus]
They say I'm mental but I'm just confused
They say I'm mental but I've been abused
They say I'm mental 'cause I'm not amused by it all
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
There's truth in everything, there's truth in lies
With all this knowledge, well I think I'm gonna be wise
[Chorus]
They say I'm mental but I'm just confused
