[Verse 1]
You act like you don't know me
When you see me on the street
You're makin' like I turn you off
When I know you think I'm sweet
It don't have to be like that
I guess you're insecure
If you say what's on your mind, I might answer "sure"
[Verse 2]
So I walk a little slower
And I try to catch your eye
Sometimes it's so hard to see the good things pa**ing by
There may never be a sign
No flashing neon light
Telling you to make your move or when the time is right
[Chorus]
(So) Why not take a crazy chance?
Why not (why not) do a crazy dance?
If you lose a moment, you might lose a lot
So, why not?
Why not?
[Interlude]
Why not take a crazy chance?
Why not take a crazy chance?
[Verse 3]
You're always dressed in yellow
When you want to dress in gold
Instead of listening to your heart
And doing just what you're told
If you keep waiting where you are
For what, you'll never know
Let's just get in to your car and go, baby, go
[Chorus]
(So) Why not take a crazy chance?
Why not (why not) do a crazy dance?
If you lose a moment, you might lose a lot
So, why not?
Why not?
[Bridge]
Oh, I could be the one for you
Oh yeah, maybe yes, maybe no
Oh, it could be the thing to do
What I'm saying is, you gotta let me know
[Verse 4]
You'll never get to heaven, or even to L.A
If you don't believe there's a way
[Breakdown]
Why not (why not) take a star from the sky?
Why not (why not) spread your wings and fly?
Oh, it might take a little, and it might take a lot
But why not?
Why not?
[Chorus]
(Why not take a crazy chance?)
Why not take a crazy chance?
(Why not do a crazy dance?)
Why not do a crazy dance?
If you lose a moment, you might lose a lot
So, why not?
Why not?
