Here's something that you never had
It slid in on an oily rag
The price is right up on the tag
I'll put in a brand new bag
This thing will let you be yourself
And won't offend nobody else
Nothing like you ever saw
Why don't you check out your mind
Been with you all the time
People thinking they've been took
Just finding out they over looked
They never found the missing link
Forgot they got a mind to think
Why don't you check out your mind
Been with you all the time
Check out your mind
Check out your mind
Check out your mind
Trust in me and I in you
No matter what you see me do
I'm doing me for all I'm worth
None do be better on this earth
Why don't you check out your mind
Been with you all the time
Why don't you check out your mind
Been with you all the time
Why don't you check out your mind
Been with you all the time
Check out your mind
Check out your mind
Check out your mind
Check out your mind
Check out your mind
