The Kinks - Permanent Waves

Please call a doctor, I've been so depressed That I think that I'm finally breakin' I can't quite explain, I can't feel any pain But I know that this time I'm not fakin' Oh, what can it be, oh, inside of me I saw my doctor he said man you look sick He said I think you better do something quick He checked me over and he said I was fit What you need is a change, have a shave, find a chick Your body functions but your hair's a disgrace You shouldn't let it hang all over your face Change your image 'cos you look out of place Comb your hair, put on weight, try to look up to date Why don't you put in some permanent waves You'll look smooth, you'll look cool, you'll be laughing You'll get lots of dates, you'll be made, you'll get laid You'll get out and about, you'll be laughing Oh, you'll be O.K. once you get those permanent waves I was really up but now I'm down once again I went out walking and it started to rain My perm washed out it just got flushed down the drain My neurosis returned, I'm a wreck once again But wait 'til I get back my permanent waves I'll be cool, I'll be smooth, I'll be laughing I'll be all the rage in my permanent waves And I'll start a new craze, I'll be laughing Oh, I'll be O.K. once I get my permanent waves
