Mental Song Titles
 

I'm currently writing something about representations of madness and paranoia in 60s and early 70s cinema (don't ask). Anyway, I quite like the idea of having some snazzy song titles (ideally from that period) as chapter headings. Obviously stuff like Love's 'The Red Telephone' is about madness and paranoia, but you'd never know that just from the title. The same could equally be said for practically every song written by either Syd Barrett or Brian Wilson. In terms of ones that do reflect it in the title though, all I've been able to come up with so far have been:

The Stones, '19th Nervous Breakdown' (which could work)
Black Sabbath's 'Paranoid' (which is a bit too generic for a chapter title)
Jimi Hendrix's 'Manic Depression' (likewise)
King Crimson's, '21st Century Schizoid Man' (which is great, but a bit confusing as a chapter title, given the period I'm looking at)
John Lennon's 'Mind Games' (which is increasingly looking like it's going to be the overall title of the thing)
Frank Zappa's, 'Who Are the Brain Police?' (which is definitely a good one)

I'm sure there are literally dozens of other examples from that period (especially in the areas of psychedelia and prog) but for whatever reason I've just drawn a total blank. So while this does appear quite an odd request, if anyone can think of some others (the stranger the better) it'd really help me out a lot.

Psychotherapy by Ramones, again a bit too generic for a chapter title.

I Want To Be Sedated

Thanks for that. Although, yeah, like 'Paranoid' and 'Manic Depression', it is perhaps a bit too generic. It's also a bit too late in terms of the period I'm looking at - otherwise 'Teenage Lobotomy' would really be a great Ramones option! As would The Cramps', 'Can't Find My Mind'.

EDIT:


OK, yeah. I Wanna Be Sedated is a brilliant choice but, again, might just be a bit too late as a reference point. The films I'm looking at, stuff like One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Family Life, Performance, etc, all stem more from the hippie/counterculture mid 60s-early 70s period (my cut off year is, latest, 1975). Sorry for not being more explicit in my initial post (or thread title) but that pretty much excludes Punk as an option really (although examples from 60s Garage Punk would be perfect).

They're Coming To Take Me Away Ha-haaa - Napoleon XIV

Bit obvious...

Count Five - Psychotic Reaction

I suppose Eddie Noack's Psycho is too generic.

Little Willie John - Spasms

Patsy Cline - Crazy

Acute Schizophrenia Paranoia Blues - The Kinks

Screamin' Jay Hawkins - I Hear Voices

ITT: The secret behind Pookie's high post count :)

The Dicks - Wheelchair Epidemic

Spacemen 3 - Losing Touch With My mind

Guided By Voices - Chasing Heather Crazy

(infact Guided By Voices would work in itself)

Also Her Psychology Today

I Had Too Much To Dream Last Night
Journey To The Centre Of Your Mind
Mr Pharmacist
The Madman Running Through the Fields
I Don't Ever Want to Come Down
Motorpsycho Nitemare
Your Mind And I Belong Together

Of course! That one's definitely a contender.

you guys should stop naming 80-90s songs. he said the cutoff point is 75

Lots of Bowie - off the top of my head:

All The Madmen
Kooks
Hang On To Yourself
Aladdin Sane
