Crazy=Genius

 

You can set yourself on fire

(Hey!)

You can set yourself on fire

 

She said at night in my dreams (Hey!)

You’d dance on a tightrope of weird

Oh, but when I wake up

You’re so normal that you just disappear

 

You’re so straight like commuters

With briefcases towing the line

There’s no residue of a torturer

Inside of your eyes

 

She said you’re just like Mike Love

But you want to Brian Wilson, Brian Wilson

She said you’re just like Mike Love

But you’ll never be Brian Wilson

 

And I said,

(Hey Hey )

“If crazy equals genius

(Hey Hey )

If crazy equals genius

 

Then I’m a fucking arsonist

(Hey!)

I’m a rocket scientist

(Hey! Hey!)

 

(Hey Hey )

If crazy equals genius”

 

(Hey!)

You can set yourself on fire

(Hey Hey!)

But you’re never gonna burn, burn, burn (Hey Hey!)

 

You can set yourself on fire

(Hey Hey!)

But you’re never gonna learn, learn, learn (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)

(Hey )

 

She said, “Darling, you know

How the wine plays tricks on my tongue,

But you don’t seem to change

When you stuff all of your feelings with drugs.”

 

All the boys you may have dated

Serrated your heart with a slice

But the cut of your love never hurts

Baby, it’s a sweet butter knife

 

She said you’re just like Mike Love

But you want to Brian Wilson, Brian Wilson

She said you’re just like Mike Love

But you’ll never be Dennis Wilson

 

And I said,

(Hey Hey )

“If crazy equals genius

(Hey Hey )

If crazy equals genius

 

Then I’m a fucking arsonist

(Hey!)

I’m a rocket scientist

(Hey! Hey!)

 

(Hey Hey )

If crazy equals genius”

 

(Hey!)

You can set yourself on fire

(Hey Hey!)

But you’re never gonna burn, burn, burn (Hey Hey!)

 

You can set yourself on fire

(Hey Hey!)

But you’re never gonna learn, learn, learn (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)

(Hey )

 

You can set yourself on fire

(Hey!)

You can set yourself on fire

(Hey!)

You can set yourself on fire

(Hey!)

You can set yourself on fire

 

And I said,

(Hey Hey )

“If crazy equals genius

(Hey Hey )

If crazy equals genius

 

Then I’m a fucking arsonist

(Hey!)

I’m a rocket scientist

(Hey! Hey!)

 

(Hey Hey )

If crazy equals genius”

 

(Hey!)

You can set yourself on fire

(Hey Hey!)

But you’re never gonna burn, burn, burn (Hey Hey!)

 

You can set yourself on fire

(Hey Hey!)

But you’re never gonna learn, learn, learn (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)

(Hey )
