Prince – Let’s Go Crazy: Lyrics and Music Video

Let’s Go Crazy 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 you’re 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

If you don’t like the world you’re living in
Take a look around you
At least you got friends
So i called my old lady for a friendly word
She just picked up the phone
Dropped it on the floor
Ssss ahh, sss ahh! is all i heard

I’m not 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
Till they put us in the truck
Let’s go

All excited, but don’t know why
Maybe it’s ’cause we’re all gonna die
And when we do, what’s it all for?
Better live now, before the grim reaper
Comes knocking on your door
Tell me baby

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
Till they put us in the truck
Let’s go

Common, baby!
Let’s get nuts
Yeah, crazy
Let’s go crazy

I’m gonna let the elevator bring us down
Oh no, let’s go, go crazy
Said let’s go crazy
Go crazy
Let’s go, let’s go
Go, let’s go

Dr. everything’ll be alright
Make everything go wrong
Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill
Hang tough children
He’s coming
He’s coming
And coming
