When I was just three, in bad company
My momma gave me infinite wealth
When she took my hand, declared me a man
And left me taking care of myself.
As the years went by living under the sky
The world showed its wonders to me
But nothing as insane as society's game
it's the craziest thing I've seen
It's the craziest thing I've ever seen.

Walking along when I saw a big lawn as far as the eye could see
No people in sight so I said "Alright!
This here's a good spot I believe."
Then I sat my ass in the well kept grass
'Til a badge came upon the scene
He said "You gotta move it son,
this is company lawn. No one's ever s'posed to use it, you see."
"Well, that's the craziest thing I've ever seen."

Yes it's the craziest thing I've ever seen
When society makes us petty and so mean
Like our hearts are taken over by disease
Yea, it's the craziest thing I've ever seen.

"Hey there boy" said a possible employer
"If you wanna come workin for me
you gotta let that man stick his hand in your pocket
but don't worry 'cause the checking is free."
So I went to the bank and they said "Hey thanks!
You racked up the usual fees.
So you've got no money. That's some tough luck, buddy.
But hey! At least our checking is free!"

"What?! that's the craziest thing I've ever seen!" (And I want my money back)

Yes it's the craziest thing I've ever seen
When society makes us petty and so mean
Like our hearts are taken over by disease
Yea, it's the craziest thing I've ever seen.

Sittin' all alone, bangin on my Silvertone
Just sittin' where the livin' is free.
Must've caught the eye of a guy with a tie
Because he came and started hassling me.
"Why don't you get a job, you pothead slob? Instead of trying to mooch off of me?"
I said, "Stop whining! You sent the jobs to China.
So now I guess you're working for me.
Ain't that the craziest thing you've ever seen?!"

Yes it's the craziest thing I've ever seen
When society makes us petty and so mean
Like our hearts are taken over by disease
Yea, it's the craziest thing I've ever seen.

Yes it's the craziest thing I've ever seen
When society makes us petty and so mean
Like our hearts are glazing over with disease
Yea, it's the craziest thing I've ever seen.
