Lyr Req: Parody of Willie Nelson's 'CRAZY'

From: PHJim

I once heard a super parody of the Willie Nelson song that Patsy Cline had a big hit with, but I can't find the words now.
The lyrics of the parody included "paranoid" and "schizophrenic".
I'm not sure, but I may have heard it on Prairie Home Companion.
Any help?
