John Cale - Crazy Egypt lyrics

Rolling through the Mardi Gras Madman on the loose That's where I met Egypt selling Antiques from a caboose She's not giving discounts or anything away What do you say? What have you got? What do you say? What have you got? In risky stock adventures, the back end might be sweet Microsoft is nothing, your money's safe with me I made a decent offer, you stared off into space You countered my proposal by laughing in my face. What do you say? What do you say? What do you say? I jump into the river, dance on burning coals, wrestle alligators or sleep out in the cold What do you say? You say I'm crazy, Egypt? (Crazy! Crazy!) What do you say? Who, me? I'm crazy, Egypt? (Crazy! Crazy!) Santa's in the garden, the sharks are in the hall Juke's playing Dixie Cups greatest hits, aw What do you mean? C'mon now. What do you mean? I'll sell you down the river on the dotted line A reasonable a**umption: even losers win sometime Empty out your pockets, chase your tail Creep down the escalade or to Elysian fields What do I think? I think you're crazy, Egypt. (Crazy!) What do I say? I say what I think: you're crazy, Egypt! (Crazy! Crazy!) Me, I'm walking out of here, emptying the till I'm calling up your lawyers and giving you the bill That's what I think. That's what I think. I think you've got trouble, Egypt! (Trouble!) (Crazy! Crazy!) The yankee on Can*l St. doesn't know which side he's on You buy me the election, I'll sell you Japan From an Algiers motel window to a debutante's affair You've got everything you wanted and you're still crazy, Egypt! (Crazy!) You've got everything you wanted and you're still crazy, Egypt! (Crazy!) You've got everything, everything you wanted and you're still crazy, Egypt! (Crazy! Crazy! Aah!)
