Dad's gone down the dogtrack, Mother's playin' bingo
Grandad's swearin' at the telly, tryin' to make the thing go
No one seems to notice me, isn't it a sin
What a crazy world we're livin' in

Now, the old man never talks to me, and when he does, it's moan
Wash your face, it looks a disgrace, oh, what an 'appy 'ome
He says I'm irresponsible, not like when he was young
Then he puts on his cap and coat to watch the greyhounds run

Oh, Dad's gone down the dogtrack, Mother's playin' bingo
Grannie's boozin' in the parlour, hic, you oughta see the gin go
No one seems to notice me, isn't it a sin
What a crazy world we're livin' in

Brown bread!

Brown bread!

Mother say's I look a yob, me trousis are too tight
She says I ought to get a job and not stay out all night
She doesn't like my haircut, she says me friends are lousy
And then she says "It's gettin' late, can't miss me ousey-ousey"

Oh, Dad's gone down the dogtrack, Mother's playin' bingo
Sister's smoochin' on the sofa, you oughta hear their lingo
No one seems to notice me, isn't it a sin
What a crazy world we're livin' in

Yay!

Law caught me out thievin', took me down the nick
The sergeant made out his report, and he layed it on real thick
He said "I'll get your parents", I answered with a grin
"Save yourself the trouble, mate, you'll never find 'em in"

'Cause Dad's gone down the dogtrack, Mother's playin' bingo
Me brothers are all layabouts, all alike by jingo
No one seems to notice me, isn't it a sin
What a crazy world we're livin' in
Yeah, what a crazy world we're livin' in
What a crazy world we're livin'
Three, four, knock at the door
What a crazy world we're livin' in

Genre:
Pop/Rock
Waste into the shadows
Chase away the demon
Looking for the answer
Always gonna need one now

I've got to tell you
When you're always running
There's nowhere you can hide
Under the gun, feel the
Fear inside you now, yeah

Cause we are living in
A crazy, crazy world
You know you really got to
Wonder what's going on

We're living in
A crazy, crazy world
You know you only got
One time around, yeah

Why should I believe you
When everything you tell me
It's not the truth
You're really trying
To sell me now
Just keep on moving

Right along the ledge
Got nowhere left to hide
Don't know where you're headed
Feel the fear inside you now

Cause we are living in
A crazy, crazy world
You know you really got to
Wonder what's going on

Living in a crazy, crazy world
You know you only got
One time around

Though we're going crazy
We see the light of day anyway
Even thought it's hazy
It's never too late
Don't make me wait

You know we're living in
A crazy, crazy world
You know you really got to
Wonder what's going on

Living in a crazy, crazy world
You know you only got
One time around

Living in a crazy, crazy world
You know you really got to
Wonder what's going on

Living in a crazy, crazy world
You know you only got
One time, one time around

Living in a crazy, crazy world
You know you really got to
Wonder what's going on

Living in a crazy, crazy world...
