[Verse 1] I see the pictures on the wall Of how people have lead their life Black and white in neat little frames But mine keeps swerving left and right [Pre-Chorus] I laugh at the polished plan I never fit in the line I like the little detours The crooked kind [Chorus] Da la la la Da la la la The crazy things in life Is what I enjoy Da la la la Kooky crazy crazy Kooky crazy crazy That’s my kind of joy [Verse 2] I take the long way home Past the market and the curb A bent-up hat, a painted shoe That’s the stuff that grabs my nerve [Pre-Chorus] I don’t want perfect days Too clean, too quiet, too tame Give me the weird little sparkle Give me the flame [Chorus] Da la la la Da la la la The crazy things in life Is what I enjoy Da la la la Kooky crazy crazy Kooky crazy crazy That’s my kind of joy [Bridge] If the world says “straight,” I curve If it says “slow,” I race I’d rather chase a wild thought Than keep a proper face [Final Chorus] Da la la la Da la la la The crazy things in life Is what I enjoy Da la la la Kooky crazy crazy Kooky crazy crazy I choose the kooky way
