clinically dysfunctional

Is what the doctor described, as me.
I went for a 2nd opinion, to challenge
His hypocrisy.
How dare he say im dysfunctional,
He knows nothing about me.
I know there are some issues,
In my own family.
Like my grandma often runs around town
Completely naked, as we have found.
There is a explanation, you see.
She was a nudist, in the 60's
Who believed in peace, love & unity.

Then there's my brother,
what a cool dude.
He has an "imaginary friend"
who we call "drew".
They often come for dinner, &
hang out with the family
We ask him, when will he ever, get rid of "drew"
Since he will soon turn 52.

My sister, I love her dearly,
has been a career criminal,
Since the age of 13.
The last crime she committed,
was a bit embarrassing,
It seems.
She stole from a homeless man,
to give to, the needy.

The family pet which we named
Sasoon,
That we thought was a cat,
Is actually a racoon.

I could go on about my parent's,
Who've been a role model to me.
Unfortunately they are incarcerated,
In a psychiatric facility.
They will soon be out, though
Locked up since 03.
For public lewd misbehavior,
Just a little discrepancy.

Clinically dysfunctional
No way,
that could never be me.
