Mama they must be crazy

Mama they must be crazy
cause I cant make heads or tales
Or someone must have lied
In your fairy tales

cause I tried to walk that straight line
Sweat clean to pay my bills
While every lazy, ass kissing, son of a bitch
Gets paid to say he will

Mama dont you know by now
Theyll never get to me
But Im still waiting for the truth
To set me free

Mama they must be crazy
The way they use theyre stepping-stones
Its carve em up and throw em out
And disregard the bones

You try to keep your senses
You try to keep your head
While some anointed yes man
Parlays your soul to death

Mama dont you know by now

Theyll never get to me
But Im still waiting for the truth
To set me free
Mama they must be crazy

Mama they must be crazy
cause they werent playing fair
son, shut the door behind you
And have a seat right over there

Mama dont you know by now
Theyll never get to me
But I was hoping that the truth
Would set me free

Mama they must be crazy
