[Mrs Johnstone]
The jury found him guilty
Sent him down for 7 years
Though he acted like they gave him life
He couldn't stop the tears
And when we went to visit him
He didn't want to know
It seems like jails sent him off the rails
Just like Marilyn Monroe
His mind's gone dancing
Can't stop dancing

They showed him to a doctor
And after routine test
A prescription note the doctor wrote
For the Chronically Depressed
And now the tears have stopped
He sits and counts the days to go
And treats his ills with daily pills
Just like Marilyn Monroe

They stop his mind from dancing
Stop it dancing

[Linda]
What are you doing?

[Mickey]
I'm taking my tablet

[Linda]
Listen Mickey, i've told you
They're just junk
You'll be home soon, Mickey
And you should come off them

[Mickey]
Why? I need to take these

[Linda]
Listen Mickey you've...

[Mickey]
No, he says, the doctor, he said..

[Linda]
What did he say?

[Mickey]
He said, about my nerves and how i get depressed
And i need to take these cause they make me better

[Linda]
I get depressed but i don't take those
You don't need those Mickey

[Mickey]
Leave me alone will you?
I can't cope with this
I'm not well, the doctor said, didn't he?
I'm not well
Just leave me alone Linda

[Mrs Johnstone]
With grace for good behaviour
He got out before his time
The family and the neighbours told him
He was looking fine
But he's feeling 15 years older
And his speech is rather slow
And his neighbours said
You'd think he was dead
Like Marilyn Monroe
No cause for dancing
No more dancing

[Mickey]
Where's me tablets gone, Linda?

[Linda]
Mickey you promised

[Mickey]
I know i promised but i can't do without them

[Linda]
Look, we've, we've managed to sort ourselves
This far but what's the use if..

[Mickey]
Have we sorted ourselves out?
Do you think i'm really stupid?

[Linda]
What?

[Mickey]
You sorted it out
You and councilman Eddie Lyons
Now give me tablets, i need them

[Linda]
And what about what i need? I need you
I love you
