Mental Patient Rap
by P.Wagg
CHORUS:
C-c-c-crazy, l-l-l-lazy, c-c-c-crazy, mad and bad.
C-c-c-crazy, l-l-l-lazy, I ain’t nothing but a nomad
in the white-coats’ lab.
They say fake it till you make it, so I take it, take it, take it,
Careening through a maze of rules that make me wanna break shit.
Sanity won’t save me, nor all the pills they gave me.
Their remedy’s my enemy, so we mad go fucking crazy.
C-c-c-crazy, l-l-l-lazy, c-c-c-crazy, mad and bad.
C-c-c-crazy, l-l-l-lazy, I ain’t nothing but a nomad
in the white-coats’ lab
VERSE 1:
I remember being locked in, tied down, drugged up,
nurses in control of me, rushing me, coercing me.
Worse than their forcing me was all the pills they pushed on me
then Thorazine or Stelazine jammed into my ass cheeks.
Abuse was inexcusable. Psychiatric orderlies
cuffed my wrists and ankles to a bed when I refused them.
Bruising me, mis-using me — and black and blues-ing me,
A/C cold as ice; retaliation taken twice.
Tied down, naked, there, I shit myself but who cared?
Just another everyday mental patient nightmare.
CHORUS:
C-c-c-crazy, l-l-l-lazy, c-c-c-crazy, mad and bad.
C-c-c-crazy, l-l-l-lazy, I ain’t nothing but a nomad
in the white-coats’ lab
They say fake it till you make it, so I take it, take it, take it,
Careening through a maze of rules that make me wanna break shit.
Sanity won’t save me, nor all the pills they gave me.
Their remedy’s my enemy, we mad go fucking crazy.
C-c-c-crazy, l-l-l-lazy, c-c-c-crazy, mad and bad.
C-c-c-crazy, l-l-l-lazy I ain’t nothing but a nomad
in the white-coats’ lab
VERSE 2:
As bad as leather cuff restraints their isolation cell was hell.
so supermax it made me faint, don’t tell me they meant it well.
No one should have dumped me there, hearing voices, terrified
they stripped my clothing off then left me locked alone inside.
and told me that they had the right to keep me there both day and night
or as long as it would take, for me to learn from their mistakes
I might never get out, never get out, never get out, never get out–
but I started freaking out. I shouted, “I will not bow down
to those with nothing more to do than cause me pain, you cowards, you
you have no heart, you’re inhumane. You torture me to entertain.
CHORUS:
C-c-c-crazy, l-l-l-lazy, c-c-c-crazy, mad and bad.
C-c-c-crazy, l-l-l-lazy, I ain’t nothing but a nomad
in the white-coats’ lab.
They say fake it till you make it, so I take it, take it, take it,
Careening through a maze of rules that make me wanna break shit.
Sanity won’t save me, nor all the pills they gave me.
Their remedy’s my enemy, so we mad go fucking crazy.
C-c-c-crazy, l-l-l-lazy, c-c-c-crazy, mad and bad.
C-c-c-crazy, l-l-l-lazy, c-c-c-crazy, I ain’t nothing but a nomad
in the white-coats’ lab
Verse 3:
Let’s sing ring around the posey-o: “Hospital Guantanamo!”
Isolation, prison SHU, and mental patients just like me who
traumatized and tortured just go c-c-c-crazy, too.
Abuse is S.O.P. from doctors of psychiatry,
Pusher docs who love to dish out electro-shock therapy
and chemical lobotomies, but it’s all about their money.
Crocks of shit! You’re so wack. You psycho-quacks, you pricks
sized us up and tricked us. But didn’t we wise up quick?
We won’t take no more horseshit, we won’t take no more crap
Take your fucking psycho-meds and ram them up your —-!
CHORUS:
C-c-c-crazy, l-l-l-lazy, c-c-c-crazy, mad and bad.
C-c-c-crazy, l-l-l-lazy, I ain’t nothing but a nomad
in the white-coats’ lab
They say fake it till you make it, so I take it, take it, take it,
Careening through a maze of rules that make me wanna break shit.
Sanity won’t save me, nor all the pills they gave me.
Their remedy’s my enemy, so we mad go fucking crazy
C-c-c-crazy, l-l-l-lazy, c-c-c-crazy, mad and bad.
C-c-c-crazy, l-l-l-lazy, I ain’t nothing but a nomad
in the white-coats’ lab
Oh, you know, you know, yes I know you know,
that I ain’t nothing, never been nothing, never been nothing…
I’ve never been nothing, except a lonely nomad
in the white-coated doctors of psychiatry lab
Spoken CODA:
PT:“I want outta here.”
RN: “Uh uh, not so fast. We’ve got your ass for fifteen days.”
PT: “Fifteen days?! No way, José. You can’t keep me here. I want a lawyer!”
RN: “Doctor, we need to calm her pronto. She’s disturbing the whole unit.”
MD: “I agree. Give her 20mg, IM Haldol, stat.”
PT: “What do you want? What’s going on?! No no! Don’t touch me…Wait!
He-e-e-elp! Help me! Please somebody! Help! Help me…!”
Thank you, Sheri.

I am trying…and doing my best. But it ain’t easy, and there are so many pitfalls, and potholes along the way…I don’t even want to mention them because they are so very dangerous and to talk about them makes them real. But I am scared even as I speak. Nevertheless, I try not to tell anyone what I am presently taking lest expectation do a number on me. And cause more damage than the lack of meds actually might. You know what I mean? Anyhow thank you for the support. I need all I can get, esp from those who have no power over me to hurt me.

Pamela – Thanks for popping over to follow my blog. Yes, I believe so many of the medications are toxic and are at the root of my husbands medical problems at the present time. He’s on a minimum dosage and we have a wonderful psychiatrist for him. I wish you every success in working your way through to happiness without extra chemicals in your body. Sheri

Thanks to both you, TTMO and Sami. I had fun doing and I do love rap and Hip Hop despite some of the objectionable lyrics…The best just gets me going…it is funny.Most people don’t see a 62 year old woman grooving to the beat of hard core rap but i really DO! Anyhow, this is inexpert at best but I had fun doing it, and who knows, maybe I will get to the point where I can video it for YOUtube and Lil’l Ole Miz PWagg will go viral with her Mental Patient Rap! 8)
