It was midnight on the ocean, Not a streetcar was in sight, And the sun was shining brightly, For it rained all day that night. 'Twas a summer night in winter, And the rain was snowing fast, And a barefoot boy with shoes on Stood a-sitting in the grass. Ain’t we crazy, Ain’t we crazy, This is the way we pass the time away. Ain’t we crazy, Ain’t we crazy, We’re going to sing this song all night today. ---

What is it that you have got that puts you where you are. I am waiting, yes I’m a captive fan. I’m dying to be shown that you are not just any man. So, if you are the Christ, yes the great Jesus Christ Feed my household with this bread. You can do it on your head. ---

No, I guess I must have dreamt you, cause the whole year is a blank. ---
