Crazy World
I woke up tomorrow
And sat on my head
So I ate supper
Before I got out of bed
Stranger things happen
In this crazy world
I went through the bedroom door
And was outside in the spring
It was snowing when I went to sleep
So now I’m listening to the moon sing
Stranger things happen
In this crazy world
The sky was brown
And pink and purple striped
Shaped like a frown
And leaking through the roof
Stranger things happen
In this crazy world
I’m drowning in air
While frying the constellations
With a magnifying pear
And some red bloomers
Stranger things happen
In this crazy world
I’ll try to fix the mistake
By finding where I went wrong
Maybe it was the beet and chocolate cake
Or the stranger I met on Mars!
Stranger things happen
In this crazy world
I’m pacing on the ceiling
Dodging the lava lamps
Later I’ll visit the dungeon
On the escalator ramps
Stranger things happen
In this crazy world
I’ll wear my best hat on my feet
Maybe some mascara on my nails
And a blouse on my head
And a scarf of decorative entrails!
Stranger things happen
In this crazy world
I’ll have to climb up six million stairs
Just to get lower than this room
And avoid the rampaging parfait fairs
‘Cause they get in the way
Stranger things happen
In this crazy world
I might dye a kitten
Like you do Easter eggs
My prisoners would be smitten
with a multicolored feline
Stranger things happen
In this crazy world
I have plenty of mess to sort out
And about seventy aliens following me
And someone keeps offering a padded room
Which I kinda want to see
Stranger things happen
In this crazy world
They say I’m crazy and insane
But I say it’s just this messed up world
So now I’m locked up and in pain
For seeing stranger things happen (Like I said they would)
