He’s crazy if he thinks we’re coming back for him  
He’s crazy if he thinks we’re coming back  
He’s crazy if he thinks we’re coming back for him  
He’s crazy anyway

You may be right  
I may be crazy  
But it just may be a lunatic you’re looking for

The lunatic is in the hall  
The lunatics are in my hall.  
The paper holds their folded faces to the floor.  
And every day the paper boy brings more…

I read the news today, oh boy!  
About a lucky man who made the grade  
And though the news was rather sad  
Well, I just had to laugh  
I saw the photograph  
He blew his mind out in a car

I don’t know why I thought I should have some kind of  
Divine right to the blues  
It’s sympathy not tears people need when they’re the  
Front page sad news.

</div>

I can’t believe the news today  
I can’t close my eyes and make it go away  
How long, how long must we sing this song ?  
How long ? How long ?  
Cause tonight, we can be as one, tonight

I said “one” for the money, “two” for the show, “three” to get ready  
now, “go cats, go!”, but don’t you, step on my blue suede shoes…

Take off your shoes and throw them away,  
Come back and get them another day  
Barefootin’

We lay on the beach for a little while  
I’ll put your clothes in a nice neat pile  
You’re the cutest girl I’ve ever seen in my life  
It’s all over now and with my knife…

Crying nobody, nobody, nobody knows  
How much I love the maiden as I tear off her clothes  
Crying nobody, nobody, nobody knows my pain  
When I see that it’s risen, the full moon again

Don’t go around tonight,  
Well, it’s bound to take your life,  
There’s a bad moon on the rise.

Bright is the moon high in starlight  
Chill in the air, cold as steel tonight  
We shift  
Call of the wild  
Fear in your eyes  
It’s later than you realized…

It’s getting late and while we wait  
My poor heart aches on  
Why keep the brakes on?  
Let’s misbehave.

When we’re holding each other in the dark hours of the night  
There are those who say it’s wrong but it’s right  
Cause the way that we feel how much sin can it be  
Lord it don’t feel like sinnin’ to me

It was good what we did yesterday  
And I’d do it once again  
The fact that you are married  
Only proves that you’re my best friend  
But it’s truly, truly a sin

Blue eyes  
Baby’s got blue eyes  
Like a deep blue sea  
On a blue blue day  
Blue eyes  
Baby’s got blue eyes  
When the morning comes  
I’ll be far away

No one knows what it’s like  
To be the bad man,  
To be the sad man  
Behind blue eyes

In the twilight glow I see her  
Blue eyes crying in the rain  
When we kissed goodbye and parted  
I knew we’d never meet again
