OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder)
Chorus
I’ve got O, I’ve got OC, I’ve got OCD
What would Mr Jung and Mr Froid have made of me?
Would their combined minds conclude a childhood misery?
Or merely shake their heads in despair and think I’m just crazy
D-C-O-C-D
One, two, four, five
Verse 1
The light is off and the door is locked,
Though I hold the switch something is blocked
The tap is off (and) my hands are clean
But still there are those things unseen
They are waiting in the car
Wondering where you are
This time will be the last
Just one more then it has passed
Verse 2
Bad things will happen if I don’t comply
Stay away from me or you’ll surely die
The universe depends on my symmetry
To balance the scales of (our) reality
Our eyes they do deceive
We see but don’t believe
The voices scream and shout
Casts what is real into doubt
OCD Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
I suffer from this and it is a common condition. I think it started in my teens.
The worst things past and present: The car being locked though I’m alright now with remotes and seeing the mirrors fold back and indicators flash twice. Having to things and avoiding certain numbers.
Thoughts that I think will bring bad luck or misfortune.
When I’m on my own locking up the place of work I have to convince myself that the heating, lights and taps are off, and finally locking the door, When other people are present I power through it as I suspect they will think I’m insane.
Despite all this, my existence is seemingly normal; I have a wife, children, job, house and a car.
