lyrics

You've got the wrong black hat on. Come back, crazy John.
You're wearin' the wrong shoes, you're walkin' the wrong road -
won't you come back, crazy John?

You've got the wrong gold watch on. Come back, crazy John.
You're readin' the wrong signs. You're tellin' the wrong time -
won't you come back, crazy John?

You thought we wouldn't see your lava-lamp core.
You thought we'd go away when you slammed the door.
You thought we wouldn't recognize you with your
Nixon mask on, didn't you, crazy John?
You stay up all night and you give us all gas.
Sometimes you really are a royal pain in the ass,
But no one else will ever wear the bag of bones
you have on - don't you know that, crazy John?
Don't you know that, crazy John?

You've got the wrong leisure suit on. Come back, crazy John.
You're readin' the wrong map, you're walkin' the wrong road -
won't you come back, crazy John?

The world as we know it is a hoax and a sham.
You order green eggs, they give you normal-looking ham.
But life can really be a trip if you keep your night
goggles on - believe it, crazy John.
You thought we wouldn't see your lava-lamp core.
You thought we'd go away when you slammed the door.
You thought we wouldn't recognize you with your
Nixon mask on, didn't you, crazy John?
Didn't you, crazy John?
