Now, I Know A Lttle Ditty,

It's Crazy As Can Be.

The Guy Who Wrote It Said He Wanted It,

And Handed It To Me.

I Found I Couldn't Use It

Because It Sounded Blue,

And That's The Very Reason Why

I'm Handing It To You.



It's A Song The Alligators Sing

While Coming Through The Rye,

As They Serenade The Elephants

Up In The Trees So High.

The Iceman Hums This Ditty

As He Shovels In The Cold,

And The Monkeys Join The Chorus

Up Around The Northern Pole.



Ain't We Crazy,

Ain't We Crazy,

This Is The Way We Pass The Time Away.

Ain't We Crazy,

Ain't We Crazy,

We're Going To Sing This Song All Night Today.



It Was Midnight On The Ocean,

Not A Streetcar Was In Sight,

And The Sun Was Shining Brightly,

For It Rained All Day That Night.

'Twas A Summer Night In Winter,

And The Rain Was Snowing Fast,

And A Barefoot Boy With Shoes On

Stood A-sitting In The Grass.



It Was Evening, And The Rising Sun

Was Setting In The West.

The Little Fishes In The Trees

Were Huddled In Their Nest.

The Rain Was Pouring Down

And The Moon Was Shining Bright,

And Everything That You Could See

Was Hidden Out Of Sight.



While The Organ Peeled Potatoes,

Lard Was Rendered By The Choir.

The Sexton Rung The Dishrag,

Someone Set The Church On Fire.

"Holy Smoke!" The Preacher Shouted.

In The Rain He Lost His Hair.

Now His Head Resembles Heaven,

For There Is No Parting There.



The Cows Were Making Cowslips

And The Bells Were Ringing Wet.

And The Bumblebees Were Making Bums

And Smoking Cigarettes.

And A Man Slept In A Stable

And Came Out A Little Ho(a)rse,

So He Hopped Upon His Golf Sticks

And Drove All Around The Course.



Ain't We Crazy,

Ain't We Crazy,

This Is The Way We Pass The Time Away.

Ain't We Crazy,

Ain't We Crazy,

We're Going To Sing This Song All Night Today.
