Is dexter ill today? Mr Kirk, Dexter's in school
I'm afraid he's not, Miss Fishborne
Dexter's truancy problem is way out of hand
The Baltimore county school board have decided to expel
Dexter from the entire public school system
Oh Mr Kirk, I'm as upset as you to learn of Dexter's truancy
But surely, expulsion is not the answer!
I'm afraid expulsion is the only answer
It's the opinion of the entire staff that Dexter is criminally insane-sane-sane
That boy needs therapy, pyschosomatic
That boy needs therapy, purely pyschosomatic
That boy needs therapy
Lie down on the couch, what does that mean?
You're a nut! You're crazy in the coconut!
What does that mean? That boy needs therapy
I'm gonna kill you, that boy needs therapy
Grab a kazoo, let's have a dual
And when I count three
That, that, that, boy, boy needs therapy
He was white as a sheet, and he also made false teeth
Avalanches above, business continues below
Did I ever tell you the story about
Cowboys! M, m, m, midgets and indians and fron, frontier psychiatrist
I, I felt strangely hypnotised
I was in another world, a world of 20, 20, 000 girls
And milk! Rectangles, to an optometrist, the man with the goldeneyeball
And tighten your buttocks, pour juice on your gen
I promised my girlfriend I'd, violin
Frontier psychiatrist, frontier, frontier, frontier, frontier psychiatrist
Frontier psychiatrist, frontier, frontier, frontier, frontier psychiatrist
Frontier psychiatrist, frontier, frontier, frontier, frontier psychiatrist
That boy needs therapy, pyschosomatic
That boy needs therapy, purely pyschosomatic
That boy needs therapy
Lie down on the couch, what does that mean?
You're a nut! You're crazy in the coconut!
What does that mean? That boy needs therapy
I'm gonna kill you, that boy needs therapy
Grab a kazoo, let's have a dual
And when I count three
That, that, that, boy, boy needs therapy
He was white as a sheet, and he also made false teeth
Frontier psychiatrist
Can you think of anything that talks, other than a person?
Um um, a bird! Yeah!
Sometimes a parrot talks
Ha ha ha, yes, some birds are funny when they talk
Can you think of anything else? A record, record, record!
