Let's Go Crazy

Dearly beloved
We are gathered here today to get through this thing called "life"
Electric word, life, it means forever and that's a mighty long time
But I'm here to tell you, this is something else
The afterworld
A world of never-ending happiness
You can always see the sun, day or night
So when you call up that shrink in Beverly Hills
You know the one, Dr. Everything'll-Be-Alright
Instead of asking him how much of your time is left
Ask him how much of your mind, babe
'Cause in this life, things are much harder in the afterworld
In this life, you're on your own
And if de-elevator tries to bring you down
Go crazy, punch a higher floor (woo!)

If you don't like the world you're living in
Take a look around you, at least you got friends
You see, I called my old lady for a friendly word
She just picked up the phone, dropped it on the floor
"Ah, ah," is all I heard

Are we gonna let de-elevator bring us down?
Oh no, let's go

Let's go crazy, let's get nuts
Let's look for the purple banana
Until they put us in the truck, let's go

We're all excited, but we don't know why
Maybe it's 'cause we're all gonna die
And when we do (when we do)
What's it all for? (what's it all for?)
You better live now before the Grim Reaper come knocking on your door

Tell me, are we gonna let de-elevator bring us down?
Oh no, let's go

Let's go crazy, let's get nuts
Look for the purple banana
Until they put us in the truck, let's go

C'mon baby, let's get nuts
Yeah, crazy

Let's go crazy

Are we gonna let de-elevator bring us down?
Oh no, let's go
(Go crazy)
I said, "let's go crazy" (go crazy)
Let's go, go (let's go, let's go)
Dr. Everything'll-Be-Alright will make everything go wrong
Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill
Hang tough, children
He's coming, he's coming, coming

Take me away
