Is Dexter ill, is Dexter ill, is Dexter ill,
Is Dexter ill today? Mr Kirk, Dexter's in school!
I'm afraid he's not, Miss Fishmore.
Dexter's truancy problem is way out of hand!
The Baltimore County school board have decided to expel
Dexter from the entire public school system.
Oh Mr Kirk, I'm as upset as you to learn of Dexter's truancy,
But surely, expulsion is not the answer!
I'm afraid expulsion is the only answer,
It's the opinion of the entire staff
that Dexter is criminally insane-sane-sane

[CHORUS]
That boy needs therapy, psychosomatic,
That boy needs therapy, purely psychosomatic,
That boy needs therapy,
Lie down on the couch, what does that mean?
You're a nut! You're crazy in the coconut!
What does that mean? That boy needs therapy,
I'm gonna kill you, that boy needs therapy,
Ranagazoo, let's have a duel,
And when I count three,
That... that... that.. boy.. boy needs therapy,
He was white as a sheet, and he also made false teeth

Avalanches above, business continues below,
Did I ever tell you the story about
Cowboys! M.. M.. Midgets and indians
and... Fron.. Frontier Psychiatrist,
I-I... I felt strangely hypnotised,
I was in another world, a world of 20.... 20,000 girls,
And milk and Rectangles, to an optometrist,
the man with the golden ey..eyeball,
And tighten your buttocks, pour juice on your chin...
I promised my girlfriend I could... the violin...violin.....violin....

Frontier Psychiatrist... Frontier....
Frontier...Frontier...Frontier Psychiatrist
x4

[CHORUS]

Frontier Psychiatrist

Can you think of anything that talks, other than a person?
Um-um u-um um um... a bird! Yeah! (bird sqawks)
Sometimes a parrot talks (parrot noise)
Ha ha ha ha... Yes, some birds are funny when they talk.
Can you think of anything else? Umm... a record, record, record!
This song is from the album "Frontier Psychiatrist E.P." and "Since I Left You".
