This heavy metal group formed in Los Angeles, California, USA, and featured Stephen Pearcy (vocals), Robbin Crosby (guitar), Warren DeMartini (guitar), Juan Croucier (bass) and Bobby 'The Blotz' Blotzer (drums). They evolved out of '70s band Mickey Ratt, transmuting into their present form in 1983, with a hint of pop about their brand of metal similar to Cheap Trick or Aerosmith. They released a self-titled mini-album in 1983 on a local label, and struck up a close personal friendship with members of Mötley Crüe which no doubt helped them to sign to Atlantic the following year. They made their breakthrough with their first full album, OUT OF THE CELLAR, which stayed in the Billboard Top 20 for six months. They toured with Ozzy Osbourne before joining a Billy Squier jaunt where they were apparently 'thrown off' because they were more popular than the headline act.

I'm Insane Lyrics
Ratt
Well, I'm off my rocker, I fell out of my tree
I've been standin' on shaky ground
There's no helping me, yeah
I can't remember my number
I can't remember your name
I can't remember all the trouble I'm in, child
(Chorus)
Well, I'm insane (repeat)
You don't go looking for trouble
Well, I'm all the trouble you need
You don't go looking for bad love
You got it guaranteed, yeah
I can't see no colors
I can't play your games
I should've listened what my momma said, child
(Chorus)
I'm insane (repeat)
Solo
You lock me up in a padded room
Chain me to the floor
Well, I'm headed for lobotomy
And I'm beggin' them for more
Well, I'm off my rocker, I fell outta my tree
I've been standin' on shaky ground
Well, there's no helping me, yeah
I can't remember my number
I can't remember your name
I can't remember all the trouble I'm in, child
(Chorus
