Only A Test Lyrics by Screeching Weasel

Television City Dream [2010 reissue]

1998

Will I get locked up in the mental ward?
Am I headed for a straight jacket
Or am I just bored?
Is it genetics?
Or is it me?
Pulling my hair out, wondering
What does a nervous breakdown look like?

Sometimes these things heal as you get old
Y'know, Jimmy Piersall doesn't climb backstops anymore
There's no more Xanax, Valium, or beer
And I'm just waiting to find out
What does a nervous breakdown look like?

What does a nervous breakdown look like?
