Intrusive Thoughts

[Verse 1]

I’m feeling better now, my therapist

Helped me deal with my demons like an exorcist

I’d have been on the waiting list for maybe six months

If I got it through the NHS

But through my job coding on

Supercomputers, I‘ve got Bupa

So now I’ve got privilege guilt

To add to my crippling worries


[Hook]

I get a rash, get irrationally scared

I might die of meningitis

Christ is fed up of me, isn’t he?

Was the meat cooked properly?

I’m scared I lack empathy, that I can’t love

My art’s just pretentious, making anti-sexist statements

When you’ve hurt nearly every girl you’ve slept with

Hating yourself much?


[Verse 2]

Some of my intrusive thoughts I’ll leave elusive

I’d find it too hard, they’re too dark

Thought that I‘m a psychopath

Like I was Jack, and it’s good as it gets

When I heard I’m neither that

Or this thing cause

Labels liberate and labels imprison

A song you give a label cause of its rhythm

I’m OCD, no Monica, this shit’s Wilson


[Hook]

I get a rash, get irrationally scared

I might die of meningitis

Christ is fed up of me, isn’t he?

Was the meat cooked properly?

I’m scared I lack empathy, that I can’t love

My art’s just pretentious, making anti-sexist statements

When you’ve hurt nearly every girl you’ve slept with

Hating yourself much?
