Rick has ground down brown peg teeth
\nin his welcoming smile
\nIf you so much as acknowledge it,

\ncompletely unaware of the irony<\/p>\n

Maybe crazy, yeah
\nDaft as doorstop-

Maybe crazy, yeah
\nMad as a Panrovian monk

Come to think of it
\nsometimes folks give me the eye
\njust because I collect cat whiskers,
\ntoys, skulls, and rust
\nI can be socially awkward
\noften \u201ccrossing the line\u201d for a stupid joke
\nI prefer to stay home
\nand, yeah … I wrote this song …<\/p>\n

Prob\u2019ly crazy, yeah
\nbut I\u2019d like to know
\nwhat you\u2019d give as your excuse?
\nCrazy, yeah
\nCrazy, yeah
\nWe\u2019re all crazy, yeah
\nNuttier than a haddock
\nin pajamas on your lawn
\nCrazy, yeah – you know
\nbut …<\/p>\n
