Lyrics
Starry-eyed
You made the planets collide
Like they do in the movies
What’s so wrong
With a head that’s strong
So you ruffled some feathers
They tried to tie you up in knots
But you wouldn’t let them keep you in a box
You’re insane but I think I like it
Just the kind of crazy that can change the world
You were a meteor shower until your final hour
You’re insane but I think I like it
You’re insane
Breaking bounds
And making brilliant sounds
Never let them forget you
Super shooting star
With a purple guitar
You were one in a million
(you were one in a billion)
They took your freedom and your songs
But you just wouldn’t play along
You’re insane but I think I like it
Just the kind of crazy that can change the world
You were a meteor shower until your final hour
You’re insane but I think I like it
You’re insane
They took your freedom and your songs
But you just wouldn’t play along
You’re insane but I think I like it
Just the kind of crazy that can change the world
You were a meteor shower, until your final hour
You’re insane but I think I like it
You’re insane but I think I like it
(I think you’re stark raving mad)
You’re insane but I think I like it
(I think you’ve really gone nuts)
You’re insane but I think I like it
(I think you’re losing your mind)
You’re insane but I think I like it
But I think I like it
Let’s go crazy, let’s get nuts
Let’s go crazy, let’s get nuts
Let’s go crazy, let’s get nuts
