Lyrics

Dearly beloved We are gathered here today to get through this thing called life Electric word, life It means forever and that's a mighty long time But I'm here to tell you there's something else The afterworld A world of never ending happiness You can always see the sun Day or night So when you call up that shrink in Beverly Hills You know the one, "Dr. Everything'll-be-alright" Instead of asking him how much of your time is left Ask him how much of your mind, baby 'Cause in this life things are much harder than in the afterworld In this life you're on your own And if the elevator tries to bring you down Go crazy, punch a higher floor Woah If you don' t like The world you're living in Take a look around At least you got friends You see I called my old lady For a friendly word She picked up the phone Dropped it on the floor (Ah, ah) Is all I heard Are we gonna let the elevator bring us down? Oh no, let's go Let's go crazy Let's get nuts Let's look for the purple banana 'Til they put us in the truck Let's go We're all excited But we don't know why Maybe it's 'cause We're all gonna die And when we do (when we do) What's it all for (what's it all for) You better live now Before the grim reaper come knocking on your door Tell me, are we gonna let the elevator bring us down? Oh, no let's go Let's go crazy Let's get nuts Look for the purple banana 'Til they put us in the truck, let's go C'mon, baby Let's get nuts Yeah (Crazy) Let's go crazy Are we gonna let the elevator bring us down? Oh, no let's go Go crazy Woah I said let's go crazy Let's go (let's go) Go (let's go) "Dr. Everything'll-be-alright" Will make everything go wrong Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill Hang tough children He's coming He's coming Coming Take me away
