Psychotherapy - Live

Lyrics

Oh mine eyes have seen the glory of the theories of Freud,
 He has taught me all the evils that my ego must avoid.
 Repression of the impulses resuling paranoid
 As the id goes marching on.
 Glory glory psychotherapy, glory glory sexuality,
 Glory glory now we can be free as the id goes marching on
 There was a man who thought his friends to him were all superior
 And this complex he imagined made life drearier and drearier
 Till his analyst assured him that he really was inferior
 As the id goes marching on.
 Glory glory psychotherapy, glory glory sexuality,
 Glory glory now we can be free as the id goes marching on
 Do you drown your superego in a flood of alcohol - or something else -
 And go running after women till you're just about to fall.
 You may think you're having fun but you're not having fun at all
 As the id goes marching on.
 Glory glory psychotherapy, glory glory sexuality,
 Glory glory now we can be free as the id goes marching on
 Oh sad is the masochism, the vagaries of sex
 Have turned half the population into total nervous wrecks.
 But your analyst will cure you, long as you can pay the cheques
 As the id goes marching on.
 Glory glory psychotherapy, glory glory sexuality,
 Glory glory now we can be free as the id goes marching on
 Is your body plagued by aches and pains that you can't understand
 Compound fractures ingrown toenails, floating kidneys, trembling hands,
 There's a secret to your trouble: you're in love with your old man
 As the id goes marching on.
 Glory glory psychotherapy, glory glory sexuality,
 Glory glory now we can be free as the id goes marching on
 Freud's mystic world of meaning needn't have us mystified
 It's really very simple what the psyche tries to hide:
 A thing is a phallic symbol if it's longer than it's wide
 As the id goes marching on.
 Glory glory psychotherapy, glory glory sexuality,
 Glory glory now we can be free as the id goes marching on.
