My Very First Nervous Breakdown Lyrics

I sit among the trees and flowers
Watch birds fly overhead for hours
Little minds can be so cruel
And little minds breed little fools
Monsters hiding in my kitchen cupboard
Satan must have eaten Mother Hubbard
And little minds breed little fools
Little minds can be so cruel
You'll have to excuse me
I'm having my very first nervous breakdown
Little minds can be so cruel
Little minds breed bigger fools
Oh here I go again!
I'm having my very first nervous breakdown
Faces in the gutter selling envy
Goldfish in the bowl is screaming free me!
Breaking down down to the ground
My head is like a swimming pool of desire
Always trying to be just a little bit higher

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
