but Pockless was first
I'm not crazy / You're the one that's crazy!
"I'm not crazy - in an institution
You're the one who's crazy - in an institution
You're driving me crazy - in an institution
They stuck me in an institution
Said it was the only solution
To give me the needed professional help
To protect me from the enemy -- myself."
The anthem of my youth seems more poignant the older I get.

Recently reacquainted with this punk gem. Everything a good punk song should be: equal parts speed, anger, and snarl.
From same HTV rock/metal show. Love this track. Was so chuffed when, years later, it was included in the guitar hero 2 soundtrack.

@SonyMusicGlobal, you only hurt yourself by blocking YouTube video sharing via sites like #thisIsMyJam

I still love this song. And as an added bonus, we are treated to a special appearance by Jack Nance and Mary Woronov as "dad" and "mom."
