lyrics
Are you crazy or what? I’m crazy, crazy! You’re crazy, crazy! I’m crazy for you! Too much wine and too many questions, my mama on the line, and too much attention! Honking horns, and loud trains—it’s cloudy outside, and my mind is insane! Can’t remember and jokes all around, too much caffeine and too much sound! Shrugging my shoulders, dancing a lot, shaking my brain—‘cause I’m too hot! I’m crazy, crazy! You’re crazy, crazy! I’m crazy for you! Thumbs up and butt back, Anthony and butt crack, ice cream and car wreck—it’s crazy, it’s crazy! Birds are crazy, commercials are crazy, my body is crazy, and gruh! It’s crazy! Are you crazy or what? Yo, it’s a Waffluck! So lift your frock up, and put your hands in the air like it’s a toss up what you’re gonna cough up, ‘cause it’s a Waffluck. On our hike, we look for evidence—stuff that’s left behind, like tracks or footprints. True investigators use scientific words like “cumulous” for clouds and “avian” for birds. Hey Rio Rangers! Put on your thinking hats! That poop on the ground—we call it “scat.” Go scat! Birds are crazy… Wha’d you say?
