Lyrics

0:17Jimmy Cream was keen his brain was always winnin'
0:25I can't keep tabs on mine it's really quite a joke
0:35I see him down the road I ask if he'd be willing
0:42To lend me 15p I'm dying for a smoke
0:52Don't arrange to have me sent to no asylum
1:00I'm just as sane as anyone
1:03It's just a game I play for fun for fun
1:15I told 'em look I said I'm not the way you're thinkin'
1:23Just when I'm down I'll be the clown I'll play the fool
1:33Please don't arrange to have me sent to no asylum
1:41I'm just as sane as anyone
1:44It's just a game I play for fun for fun
1:50Is it really
2:03Will he take a sailboat ride
2:07Well he is very likely to
2:11Will he feel good inside
2:13Well he ain't very likely to
2:18Will he tell you he's alive
2:22Yeah he is always trying to
2:29Yeah but nothin' no no nothin' does he say
2:33In the morning when the days begun
2:37Hello Good morning how are you
2:41And in the evening or the noonday sun
2:44Oh what a lovely afternoon
2:48Well I've been living next to you
2:59Bluesy Monday is the one day that they come here
3:09Yeah when they haunt me and they taunt me in my cage
3:13Oh in my cage
3:18I mock 'em all they're feelin' small they got no answer
3:26Yeah they're playin' dumb but I'm just laughing as they rage
3:36Don't arrange to have me s-sent to no asylum
3:44Well it's only a game I'm playin' for fun
3:48Yeah I've been tryin' to fool everyone
3:50Oh but they still taunt me
3:53Oh is it really
4:01No that's too heavy
4:06Will he take a sailboat ride
4:09Well he is very likely to
4:13Will he feel good inside
4:17He ain't ever likely to
4:21Will he tell you he's alive
4:25He is always trying to
4:31But nothin' no no nothin' does he ever say
4:36In the morning when the day's begun
4:39Do you think it looks like rain
4:41And in the evening or the noonday sun
4:47You know I nearly missed my train
4:49Well I've been living next to you my friend
4:54But what kind of friend are you
4:58Is it the beginning or the sorry end
5:01Will I ever see it through
5:06Now I've never been insane
5:14Oh what's the game
5:35I believe I'm dying
5:43He's mad mad mad
6:43Not quite right
6:53Not quite right
7:01Oooooooo

Hello Good morning how are you
And in the evening or the noonday sun
Oh what a lovely afternoon
Well I've been living next to you
Bluesy Monday is the one day that they come here
Yeah when they haunt me and they taunt me in my cage
Oh in my cage
I mock 'em all they're feelin' small they got no answer
Yeah they're playin' dumb but I'm just laughing as they rage

Will I ever see it through
Now I've never been insane
Oh what's the game
I believe I'm dying
He's mad mad mad
Not quite right
Not quite right
Oooooooo
