I'm like a fish outta water
I don't like it
I don't like it too
A lamb to the slaughter
I can't fight it
I can't fight it too
I got chips on me shoulders
I can't hide it
I can't hide it too
And then me eyes start to smoulder
I need some water
Pour water on you
Neurotica, neurotica
I got a new kind of powder
Full of badness
Full of madness too
When it gets in me structure
I get excited
I get excited too
But when I bust out of Eenya
Dem nah go catch me
Dem nah go catch me too
I'm gonna slip through their fingers
I'm gonna dazzle them
I'm gonna dazzle them too
Whoi yoi yoi
Whoi yoi yoi
Neurotica, neurotica
I'm cool pon your corner
Nah badder watch me
Nah badder watch me too
Got chips pon me shoulders
I can't hide it
I can't hide it too
I got a new kind of powder
Full of badness
Full of madness too
And when it gets in me structure
I get excited
I get excited too
Neurotica, neurotica
