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, ha-ha
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, ha-ha
To the happy home
With trees and flowers
and chirping birds
And basket weavers
who sit and smile
And twiddle with their
thumbs and toes
And they're coming
to take me away, ha-ha....!
I cooked your food
I cleaned your house
And this is how
you pay me back
For all my kind
unselfish loving deeds, ha...
Well you just wait
They'll find you yet
And when they do they'll
put you in the ASPCA
You mangy mutt..!
And.., they're coming
to take me away, ha-ha
They're coming
to take me away
Ho-ho, hee-hee, ha-ha
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...
