Does It Mean I’m Crazy?

{ Edit: as I just mentioned in the comments to Rhett, without knowing the song’s melody or feel, try to imagine my vocal delivery as part Madeline Khan, part Latka Gravas, with a bunch of Robin Williams thrown in . }

1.) I play it on my tricycle.

I play it while I’m watching my t.v.

I play it eating jell-o

and I play it while I’m talking to my tree.

I play it in the heat of day and when the night is cool.

I play it in the shower, in the bathtub, in the pool.

 

Does it mean I’m crazy ‘cause

I play my ukulele all the time?

2.) I play it while I’m coloring.

I play it while I’m doing arts and crafts.

And when I’m weaving baskets

I can even play my uke behind my back.

I play it for the voices having fun inside my head.

I play it for the people living underneath my bed.

 

Does it mean I’m crazy ‘cause

I play my ukulele all the time?

Bridge:

Sweet ukulele

Oh, the music I hear

Dear, sweet ukulele

Whenever you are near.

3.) Here where they have brought me

all the doctors and the nurses are so nice.

They keep me medicated

and my rubber room is always clean and bright.

I play it in group therapy and everybody sings.

It doesn’t even matter that my uke has got no strings.

 

Does it mean I’m crazy ‘cause

I play my ukulele all the time?

 

Does it mean I’m crazy ‘cause

I play my ukulele all the time

 

all the time,

all the time,

all the time,

all the time…

(Well, does it?)
