Come together, right now, over me.
Tommy can you see me?
The Eiffel Tower and the Taj Mahal I can see on clear days
You thought that I would need a crystal ball to see right through the haze
The prophet stared at his crystal ball. Can I play with madness ?
Insane in the membrane. Insane, insane, in the brain
They’re coming to take me away, HA HA
They’re coming to take me away, HO HO HEE HEE HA HA
To the funny farm
Where life is beautiful all the time
And I’ll be happy to see
Those nice, young men
In their clean, white coats
And they’re coming to take me away, Ha-haaa!
My brain is hanging upside down.
Upside down
Boy, you turn me
Inside out
And round and round
All my life’s a circle
Sunrise and sundown
Sun arise, come every morning
Sun arise, come every morning
Bringing back the warmth to the ground
Sunrise, sunset, sunrise, sunset,
Swiftly fly the days.
Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers,
Blossoming even as we gaze.
Don’t let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself, it’s always someone else I see
Well, she’s looking like a queen in a sailor’s dream,
And she don’t always say what she really means.
Sundown, you’d better take care,
If I find you’ve been creeping round my back stair.
I was almost there at the top of the stair
with her screaming in the rain.
I saw a mouse. Where? There on the stairs. Where on the stairs? Right there.
A little mouse with clogs on, well I declare, going tip tippity tap on the stairs. Oh yeah.
I know a mouse and he hasn’t got a house. I don’t know why. I call him Gerald.
He’s getting rather old, but he’s a good mouse.
The mouse takes the cheese
The mouse takes the cheese
Hi-ho, the derry-o
The mouse takes the cheese
It’s a thief in the night
To come and grab you
It can creep up inside you
And consume you
A disease of the mind
It can control you
I feel like a monster
It was a one-eyed one-horned
flying purple people eater
He soothed the souls of psychos and the men who had the horn,
And they all left very happy in the morning.
