Crazy Gnome, Crazy Gnome
Crazy Gnome, Crazy Gnome
Crazy Gnome, Crazy Gnome *Gnome echoes for a few seconds*
This song is called "Crazy Gnome"
Crazy Gnome, Crazy Gnome
Ok everyone theres a crazy gnome out in the audience
Say "Crazy Gnome" when the time g...
Crazy Gnome, Crazy Gnome
Crazy Gnome, Crazy Gnome
Crazy Gnome, Crazy Gno…
Crazy Gnome, Crazy Gnome
Crazy Gnome, Crazy Gnome
Crazy Gnome, Crazy Gnome
Crazy Gnome, Crazy Gnome
Ok we got any gnomes out there
Do we got any crazy gnomes out there
Crazy Gnome was walkin through the desert
It was dry and got nothing but the lepers
And I was beatin out their blood and pus
And all their scabs are no what do what do what
Do you want with me
Crazy Gnome on a fuckin Halloween
Crazy Gnome, Crazy Gnome
Crazy Gnome
And he'll go in your home
He won't be here when you're walkin down
But Crazy Gnome,
He doesn't care about your hat
If he's goin off all inside
If you're getting' yourself a new ride
Or movin away from your college or parents
Or movin away from bein a sea monkey, that's great
Crazy Gnome knows what you're sayin
Crazy Gnome he was awake all day
And when he went outside at quarter past 10
Crazy Gnome, he started eatin raw chicken
And the things you want, the things you do
The Crazy Gnome wants a belt whoopin
You're crazy
Crazy Gnome, Crazy Gnome
Crazy Gnome
AHHHHHHHHHHH
AHHHHHHHHHHH
AHHHHHHHHHHH
AHHHHHHHHHHH
Well Crazy Gnome
He has a wavy cap
Went to school and then he got home from gym
He felt wawawawawawai don't understand
I guess he made my jacket my own
Gnome, Crazy Gnome
Crazy Gnome, Crazy
Cheering throughout portion below. This is just Isaac rambling about the gnome. He isn't singing the bottom part.
Every year crazy gnome comes around
And he looks at all your stuff and he laughs at you
Crazy Gnome is no one's friend
If you see Crazy Gnome near your house
Feel self-conscious
Say "He's laughing at you and your stuff"
I saw crazy gnome inside my house twice this year
I didn't leave my house for a week each time
My stuff was violated by the crazy gnome
You probably don't even know him when you see him
"Oh it's just that weird little mailman"
Crazy Gnome, Crazy Gnome
In your house, looking through your home
And he's laughin at your stuff
Crazy Gnome
