Song Lyrics

Tommy thinks the crazies are back in my mind
Tommy says the children are clouding my head
When everything is wrong I dance inside my mind

That's when I come alive like a schizo running wild
That's when I come alive now let's go wild

We're kicking at your window and keeping you up
And if you come to find me I'll color you red
We're dancing in the dungeon every Monday night

That's when we come alive like a schizo running wild
That's when I come alive now let's go wild

You want to see me crazy taking my meds
And wipe away the noises you think I'm a mess
Take me six feet under, but while your roses died, I came alive

You better leave the town I'm coming for you
Call the Tommy up and tell him come help you out
I'm getting wild on you you better go and call the law

When Tommy thinks the crazies are back your mind
When Tommy says the children are clouding your head
When everything is wrong, just dance inside your mind
And you'll come alive

Charles Joseph, Janelle Monae, Kellis Earl Parker Jr., Nathaniel Irvin Iii
