CHORUS:
Unwind my mind.
Baby, drain my brain.
Unscrew my head.
Take apart my heart.
Scrape away the pain,
And start all over again.

I tell you, baby,
I don't understand
Just how you can make love to me
While you're lookin' at the picture of another man.
You got me talkin' to my elbow,
Climbin' up the wall.
First you tell me you despise me.
Then you say you idolize me.
Then you say you can't use me at all.

CHORUS:
Unwind my mind.
Baby, drain my brain.
Unscrew my head.
Take apart my heart.
Scrape away the pain,
And start all over again.

I tell you, baby ,
I just can't go on.
The hung up way that we're livin'
While I'm doin' all the givin',
You keep on callin' me John!
First you messin' with Charlie.
Then you jivin' with Jim.
And I know you need a father
But I really cannot bother
Bein' all those other guys plus him.

CHORUS:
Baby, unwind my mind,
Sever my spine,
Yeah… unroll my soul.
