I'm bored of cheap and cheerful

I want expensive sadness

Hospital bills, parole

Open doors to madness

I want you to be crazy 'coz you're borin' baby when you're straight

I want you to be crazy 'coz you're stupid baby when you're sane

I'm sick of social graces

Show your sharp-tipped teeth

Lose your cool in public

Dig that illegal meat

'Coz love is just a dialogue

You can't survive on ice-cream

You got the same needs as a dog

It's alright (it's alright) to be mean (to be mean)

It's alright (it's alright) to be mean (to be mean)

I want you to be crazy 'coz you're borin' baby when you're straight

I want you to be crazy 'coz you're stupid baby when you're sane

It's alright (it's alright) to be mean (to be mean)

It's alright (it's alright) to be mean (to be mean)

It's alright (it's alright) to be mean (to be mean)

It's alright (it's alright) to be mean (to be mean)

I want you to be crazy 'coz you're borin' baby when you're straight

I want you to be crazy 'coz you're stupid baby when you're sane

I want you to be crazy 'coz you're borin' baby when you're straight

I want you to be crazy 'coz you're stupid baby when you're sane
