Manic depression is touching my soul
I know what I want
But I just don't know
How to go about getting it

Feeling, sweet feeling
Drops from my finger, fingers
Manic depression's captured my soul

Woman so willing the sweet cause in vain
You make love, you break love
It's-a all the same
When it's over

Music, sweet music
I wish I could caress, caress your kiss
Manic depression's a frustrating mess
Ow, yeah, uh huh

Well, I think I'll go turn myself off an' uh, go on down
All the way down
Really ain't no use in me hanging around

Music, sweet music
I wish I could caress, caress your kiss
Manic depression's a frustrating mess
