We all go a little mad sometimes;
the record skips and the needle jumps.
Scattered echoes are revered in rhymes.
We all go a little mad sometimes;
untroubled to read between the lines,
dancing along as the rhythm pumps.
We all go a little mad sometimes;
the record skips and the needle jumps.
Shared with dVerse Poetics and using the line “We all go a little mad sometimes” from the movie Psycho.

Yes, we do
