Lyrics
1. Love birds of a feather
Always flock together
It’s an old, old custom of the heart
That’s the reason, maybe
That I call you baby
I guess we’re each other’s counterpart
Chorus:
C-R-A-Z-Y People! C-R-A-Z-Y People!
Crazy people like me
Go crazy over people like you
D-A-F-F-Y People! G-O-O-F-Y People!
Dizzy people like me go nutty over things that you do
When we are underneath the moon
The moon above
You have me acting like a loon
It must be love, sweet love
C-R-A-Z-Y People! C-R-A-Z-Y People!
Crazy people like me
Go crazy over people like you
Chorus:
C-R-A-Z-Y People! C-R-A-Z-Y People!
Crazy people like me
Go crazy over people like you
D-A-F-F-Y People! G-O-O-F-Y People!
Dizzy people like me go nutty over things that you do
Don’t mind me if I rave a lot
Sweet angel child
It’s just a habit that I’ve got
You drive me wild, I’m wild
C-R-A-Z-Y People! C-R-A-Z-Y People!
Crazy people like me
Go crazy over people like you
2. When the moon is yellow
My heart gets so mellow
I become a sentimental fool
Love becomes my racket
There is no straight jacket
That can hold me in a vestibule
Chorus:
C-R-A-Z-Y People! C-R-A-Z-Y People!
Crazy people like me
Go crazy over people like you
D-A-F-F-Y People! G-O-O-F-Y People!
Dizzy people like me go nutty over things that you do
If you went walking in the rain
Or in the snow
I’d go get water on the brain
And freeze my toe, Oh, oh
C-R-A-Z-Y People! C-R-A-Z-Y People!
Crazy people like me
Go crazy over people like you
Chorus:
C-R-A-Z-Y People! C-R-A-Z-Y People!
Crazy people like me
Go crazy over people like you
D-A-F-F-Y People! G-O-O-F-Y People!
Dizzy people like me go nutty over things that you do
You notice when we’re in the park
Down by the Zoo
I want to kiss you in the dark
I go cuckoo, I do
C-R-A-Z-Y People! C-R-A-Z-Y People!
Crazy people like me
Go crazy over people like you
