[Chorus] 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? [Verse 1] 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 change have shave find chick. [Verse 2] 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. [Chorus] 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. [Verse 3] 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. [Chorus] 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 with 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
