Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)

I woke up this morning with the sundown shining in
I found my mind in a brown paper bag, but then
I tripped on a cloud and fell eight miles high
I tore my mind on a jagged sky
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in.

I pushed my soul in a deep dark hole and then I followed it in
I watched myself crawling out as I was crawling in
I got up so tight, I couldn't unwind
I saw so much, I broke my mind
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in.

Someone painted "April Fool" in big black letters on a DEAD END sign
I had my foot on the gas as I left the road and blew out my mind
Eight miles out of Memphis and I got no spare
Eight miles straight up downtown some where
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in.
