[Verse 1]
My baby is a basket case
A bipolar mama in leather and lace
Face like an angel, she's a perfect waste
My baby is a basket case
[Verse 2]
Dracula's daughter, Calamity Jane
Smoke on the water, water on the brain
She's pretty as a picture and totally crazed
My baby is a basket case
[Chorus]
She's gonna make a madman outta me
She's gonna make a madman outta me
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
She's manic-depressive and schizoid too
The friskiest psycho that I ever knew
We're paranoid lovers lost in space
My baby is a basket case
[Bridge]
Ba-ba-ba-ba, basket case
Ba-ba-ba
Ba-ba-ba-ba, basket case
Ba-ba-ba
Ba-ba-ba-ba, basket case
Ba-ba-ba
Ba-ba-ba-ba, basket case
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
My baby's gonna celebrate
I'm being dragged through the nuthouse gates
Got my straitjacket on and I'm taking her place
My baby is a basket case
[Chorus]
She finally made a madman outta me
She finally made a madman outta me
My baby made a madman outta me
She finally made a madman outta me
[Outro]
She made a madman (My baby is a basket case)
Madman outta me (She's a basket case)
She made a madman (My baby is a basket case)
Madman outta me (She's a basket case)
She made a madman (My baby is a basket case)
Madman outta me (She's a basket case)
She made a madman (My baby is a basket case)
Madman outta me (She's a basket case)
