Now, I know a little ditty, it's as crazy as can be
D D
The guy who wrote it said he wanted it, and handed it to me
G G
I found I couldn't use it because it sounded blue
D D A A D D
And that's the very reason why I'm handing it to you


D D A A
It's a song the alligators sing while coming through the rye
D D
As they serenade the elephants, up in the trees so high
G G
The iceman hums this ditty, as he shovels in the coal
D D A A D D
And the monkeys join the chorus, up around the northern pole


D D A A
Ain't we crazy, ain't we crazy
D D
This is the way we pass the time away
A A
Ain't we crazy, ain't we crazy
D D
We're going to sing this song all night today

D D A A
It was midnight on the ocean, not a streetcar was in sight
D D
And the sun was shining brightly, for it rained all day that night
G G
'Twas a summer night in winter and the rain was snowing fast
D D A A D D
And a barefoot boy with shoes on stood a-sitting in the grass

D D A A
It was evening, and the rising sun was setting in the west
D D
The little fishes in the trees were huddled in their nests
G G
The rain was pouring down and the moon was shining bright
D D A A D D
And everything that you could see was hidden out of sight


D D A A
While the organ peeled potatoes, lard was rendered by the choir
D D
The sexton rung the dishrag, someone set the church on fire
G G
"Holy smoke!" The preacher shouted, in the rain he lost his hair
D D A A D D
Now his head resembles heaven, for there is no parting there

D D A A
The cows were making cowslips, and the bells were ringing wet
D D
And the bumblebees were making bums, and smoking cigarettes
G G
And a man slept in a stable, and came out a little hoarse
D D A A D D
So he hopped upon his golf sticks, and drove all around the course

D D A A
Ain't we crazy, ain't we crazy
D D
This is the way we pass the time away
D D A A
Ain't we crazy, ain't we crazy
D D
We're goin' to sing this song all night today

D D A A
It was midnight on the ocean, not a horsecar was in sight
D D
As I stepped into the drugstore, to get myself a light
G G
The man behind the counter was a woman old and gray
D D A A D D
Who used to peddle shoestrings on the road to Mandalay.

D D A A
"Good evening, sir," the woman said, and her eyes were bright with tears
D D
As she put her head beneath her feet and stood that way for years
G G
Her children, six, were orphans, except one tiny tot
D D A A D D
Who lived in a house across the street above a vacant lot

D D A A
Ain't we crazy, ain't we crazy
D D
But this is the way we pass the time away
D D A A
Ain't we crazy, ain't we crazy
D D
We're going to sing this song all night today
