(A. Scott/Sloan)

Don't take it from me
But Altered States scared me

Should have realized it
It's when he tore apart the lab with the monkey on his back
I never recognized him
And now he'll never give up until security can pull him aside

The goats don't mind
Only the doctors disagree
He's playing his lover like a broadmind
And now its happening to me

Don't take it from me

Everyone can try to save his life
'Cause evidently he's unable

Should have realized it
It's when he tore apart the lab with the monkey on his back
I never recognized him
And now he'll never give up because he knows what he's going to do
