  • Written By: Rick Mitarotonda & Matt Campbell
You might have seen him walking
In a thoughtful Sunday stew
Beware my friends you caught a glimpse
But he's always watching you
He operates by night and day
With precision on his brow
His patients are the victims
To the blinding spell of doubt

When he comes a knocking
You best not let him in
He'll hang his feet upon your couch
And sell you medicine
He'll creep and crawl along your floors
With resentful residue
You'll slip and fall and crack your head
He'll blame it all on you

Doctor doctor
Won't you let me be
Please don't you blame
Those evil tricks on me
Cause I been down
And I'm sure I know it's you
That's been sneaking around
Inside my head
With nothing else to do

Silence is the silouette
Of his viral retinue
He's slinking slyly thru the town
With his vile unbridled crew
They're crouching on the rooftops
Watching every move
When you find yourself in silence
They've got their hands on you

Doctor doctor
Don't you let me be
Please don't you play
Those evil tricks on me
Cause I been down
And I'm sure I know it's you
That's been sneaking around
Inside my head
With nothing else to do

Faithful to the laws
Set forth by pride's decree
The doctor has a knack for
Sowing seeds of jealousy
If you think you've got control
Of your primal destiny
Just look out for the doctor's
Primeval specialty

Doctor doctor
Won't you let me be
Please don't you play
Those evil tricks on me
Cause I been down
And I'm sure I know it's you
That's been sneaking around
Inside my head
With nothing else to do
To do
Do
