Remember when you ran away

And I got on my knees and begged

You not to leave

Because I'd go berserk?

Well!

You left me anyhow and then

The days got worse and worse

And now you see I've gone

Completely out of my mind.



And



They're coming to take me away, Ha-ha

They're coming to take me away, Ho-ho

Hee-hee-haa-haa

To the funny farm

Where life is beautiful all the time

And I'll be happy to see those

Nice young men in their clean white coats and

They're coming to take me away, ha-ha!



You thought it was a joke

and so you laughed, you laughed,

when I had said that losing you

would make me flip my lid.

Right?

You know you laughed

I heard you laugh

You laughed, you laughed

and laughed and then you left but

Now you know I'm utterly mad



And



They're coming to take me away, ha-ha,

They're coming to take me away, ho-ho,

hee hee, haa haa

To the happy home

With trees and flowers and chirping birds

And basket-weavers who sit and smile

And twiddle their thumbs and toes

And they're coming to take me away, ha-hahaha...



I cooked your food, I cleaned your house,

And this is how you pay me back for

All my kind, unselfish, loving deeds,

Hah?

Well you just wait, they'll find you yet

And when they do they'll put you in the ASPCA you mangly mutt!



And



They're coming to take me away, Ha-ha

They're coming to take me away, Ho-ho

Hee-hee-haa-haa

To the funny farm

Where life is beautiful all the time

And I'll be happy to see those

Nice young men in their clean white coats and

They're coming to take me away, ha-ha!



To the happy home

With trees and flowers and chirping birds

And basket-weavers who sit and smile

And twiddle their thumbs and toes

And they're coming to take me away, ha-hahaha...



To the funny farm

Where life is beautiful all the time

And I'll be happy to see.....
