Do you have the time to listen to me whine?
About nothing and everything, all at once
I am one of those melodramatic fools
Neurotic to the bone, no doubt about it
Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid or am I just stoned?
I went to a shrink, to analyze my dreams
She said it's lack of sex that's bringing me down
I went to a whore, he said my life's a bore
So quit my whining 'cause it's bringing her down
Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think, I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
I don't know
Grasping to control
So I better hold on
Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
Or am I just stoned?
About nothing and everything, all at once
I am one of those melodramatic fools
Neurotic to the bone, no doubt about it
Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid or am I just stoned?
I went to a shrink, to analyze my dreams
She said it's lack of sex that's bringing me down
I went to a whore, he said my life's a bore
So quit my whining 'cause it's bringing her down
Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think, I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
I don't know
Grasping to control
So I better hold on
Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
Or am I just stoned?

Recently we heard Linus and Lucy and now Basket Case, which for some reason go extremely well together. I'm sure all my more educated/nerdy RP listeners can probably find some similar chord progression or the like, but I'm just glad I was able to experience this combo thanks to RP 
Ah the ubiquitous "Pachelbel's Canon" chord progression.
Ahhhhhh....the memories!
i did a double-take upon hearing this, thinking the station changed. good call, Bill! a blast from the past!
The classic "pop punk." Fine in moderation, but noticed a spike in GD on the RP list recently.
A classic that I am quite happy to hear at RP
