Freudiana Lyrics - The Alan Parsons Project

Lead vocal: eric woolfson 

I was alone in my room feeling sorry for myself. 

Call me a prophet of doom, I could think of nothing else. 

I found a freudian book gathering dust upon my shelf. 

I thought I'll give it a look, would it hurt or would it help? 

Freudiana, do you want to be somebody? 

Freudiana, do you want to change the world? 

I met the wolfman and the ratman, anna-o and little hans. 

They were walking on a tightrope, I never thought they had a chance. 

And then a hand reached out to hold them just before they tumbled down. 

But I was standing in a quicksand and I could not feel the ground. 

Freudiana, do you want to be somebody? 

Freudiana, do you want to change the world? 

I look back and try to find the part of me I don't know. 

I won't stop till I see the truth. there's such a long way to go. 

I saw a picture of a stranger but I don't understand. 

He had a ring around his finger and something burning in his hand. 

And I wanted him to teach me and I needed to believe. 

But the shadows that he threw me were intended to deceive. 

Freudiana, do you want to be somebody? 

Freudiana, do you want to change the world?
