Lyrics

[00:09.36] Whatever happened to the funky race?
[00:12.34] A generation lost in pace,
[00:16.34] -Wasn′t life supposed to be more than this?
[00:20.18] In this kiss I′ll change your bore for my bliss
[00:23.81] But let go of my hand and it will slip out
[00:26.36] in the sand if you don′t give me the chance
[00:28.84] to break down the walls of latitude,
[00:31.68] I ask nothing of you
[00:35.14] not even your gratitude
[00:38.53] And if you think I′m corny
[00:40.43] then it will not make me sorry
[00:42.46] it′s your right to laugh at me
[00:45.75] and in turn, that′s my opportunity
[00:49.49] to feel brave
[00:55.00] Because ridicule is no shame
[00:58.00] oh,it takes a fool to remain sane
[01:02.00] oh,it takes a fool to remain sane
[01:06.00] oh,it takes a fool to remain sane
[01:10.81] Oh In this world all covered up in shame.
[01:13.04] off the bus the picture never drops
[01:15.73] it′s like a multicoloured snapshot stuck in my brain
[01:18.20] it kept me sane for a couple of years
[01:23.37] as it drenched my fears
[01:25.48] of becoming like the others
[01:27.46] who become unhappy mothers
[01:29.29] and fathers of unhappy kids
[01:31.93] And why is that?
[01:33.13] ′Cause they′ve forgotten how to play
[01:36.03] or maybe they′re afraid to feel ashamed
[01:40.04] to seem strange
[01:41.87] to seem insane
[01:43.63] to gain weight
[01:44.70] to seem gay
[01:45.91] - I tell you this:
[01:48.48] That it takes a fool to remain sane
[01:52.18] Oh It takes a fool to remain sane
[01:56.13] Oh It takes a fool to remain sane
[01:59.87] Oh In this world all covered up in shame
[02:04.03] (-Oh, take it to the stage!)
[02:20.11] So, take it to the stage in a multicoloured
[02:23.63] jacket take it jackpot, crackpot,
[02:26.17] strutting like a peacock
[02:28.20] nailvarnish Arkansas
[02:29.98] shimmy-shammy featherboah crackpot haircut
[02:33.67] dye your hair in glowing red and blue,
[02:36.44] -Do, Do, Do! What you wanna do, Don′t think twice,
[02:39.91] do what you have to do,
[02:43.80] Do, Do, Do,Do, let your heart decide
[02:48.12] what you have to do that′s all there is to find
[02:54.01] Cause it takes a fool to remain sane,
[02:58.37] Oh It takes a fool to remain sane
[03:02.13] Oh In this world all covered up in shame
[03:05.94] Oh It takes a fool to remain sane,
[03:09.61] Oh It takes a fool to remain sane
[03:13.75] Oh It takes a fool to remain sane
[03:17.55] Oh In this world all covered up in shame
[03:21.57] -Oh, it takes a fool!..
