Who's Crazy/My Psychopharmacologist and I
Alice Ripley, Aaron Tveit, J. Robert Spencer, Louis Hobson, Jennifer Damiano & Adam Chanler-Berat
DAN：Who's crazy?
The husband or wife?
Who's crazy?
To live their whole life believing that somehow things aren't as bizarre as they are
Who's crazy?
The one who can't cope Or maybe the one who'll still hope The one who sees doctors or the one who just waits in the car And i was a wild twenty five And I loved a wife so alive But now i believe i would settle for one who can drive
DR.
FINE (spoken): The round blue ones with food but not with the oblong white ones The white ones with the round yellow ones but not the trapezoidal green ones Split the green ones into thirds with a tiny chisel Use a mortar and pestal to grind...
DIANA: My Psychopharmacologist and I It's like an odd romance Intense and very intimate We do our dance My Psychopharmacologist and I Call it a lovers' game He knows my deepest secrets I know his...
name!
And though he'll never hold me He'll always take my calls It's truly like he told me Without a little lift the ballerina falls
(voices start scatting in background)
DR.
FINE (spoken): Goodman, Diana.
Bipolar depressive with delusional episodes.
16 year history of medication.
Adjustment after one week.
DIANA (spoken): I've got less anxiety, but i have headaches, blurry vision, and i can't feel my toes.
DR.
FINE (spoken): So, we'll try again and eventually we'll get it right.
DIANA (spoken): Not a very exact science, is it?
ALL VOICES: Zoloft and Paxil and Buspar and Xanax Depakote, Klonopin, Ambien, Prozac Atavan calms me when i see the bills These are a few of my favorite pills
DIANA (spoken): Ooh.
Thank you, Doctor.
Valium is my favorite color.
How'd ya know?
DR.
FINE (spoken): Goodman, Diana.
Second adjustment after three weeks.
Delusions less frequent but depressive state worse.
DIANA (spoken): I'm nauseous, and I'm constipated, completely lost my appetite and gained 6 pounds, which ya know, is just not fair.

DR.
FINE (spoken): Goodman, Diana.
Third adjustment after five weeks.
Reports continued mild anxiety and some lingering depression.
DIANA (spoken): I now can't feel my fingers or my toes.
I sweat profusely for no reason.
Fortunately, i have absolutely no desire for sex.
Although, whether thats the medicine or the marriage is anybody's guess.
DR.
FINE (spoken): I'm sure its the medicine
DIANA (spoken): Oh, thank you, that's very sweet.
But my husband's waiting in the car
DAN: Who's crazy?
The one who's half gone?
Or maybe the one who holds on Remembering when she was twenty, and brilliant and bold And i was so young, and so dumb, and now i am old And she was wicked and wired The sex was simply inspired Now there's no sex She's depressed and me i'm just tired, tired, tired, tired Who's crazy?
The one who's uncured Or maybe the one who's endured The one who has treatments or the one who just lives with the pain
DIANA: And though he'll never hold me He'll always take my calls Its truly like he told me Without a little lift the ballerina falls My Psychopharmacologist and I Together side by side Without him I'd die My Pyschopharmacologist and I
DAN: They say love is blind But believe me love is insane
DR.
FINE (spoken): Goodman, Diana.
Seven weeks.
DIANA (spoken): I don't feel like myself.
I mean, i don't feel anything.
DR.
FINE (spoken): Hmph.
Patient stable.
