Crazy (03:00)
Gnarls Barkley • St. Elsewhere
I remember when
I remember, I remember when I lost my mind
But there was something so pleasant about that place
Even your emotions had an echo
In so much space

And when you're out there
Without care
Yeah, I was out of touch
But it wasn't because I didn't know enough
I just knew too much

Does that make me crazy?
Does that make me crazy?
Does that make me crazy?
Possibly...

And I hope that you are having
The time of your life
But think twice
That's my only advice

Come on now, who do you,
Who do you, who do you, who do you think you are?
Ha ha ha, bless your soul
You really think you're in control?

Well, I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
Just like me

My heroes had the heart
To lose their lives out on a limb
And all I remember
Is thinking, I want to be like them

Ever since I was little
Ever since I was little it looked like fun
And it's no coincidence I've come...
And I can die when I'm done

But maybe I'm crazy
Maybe you're crazy
Maybe we're crazy
Probably...

St. Elsewhere (02:32)
Gnarls Barkley • St. Elsewhere
I packed a few of my belongings
Left the life that I was living
Just some memories of it
Mostly the ones I can't forget

Whenever you need me I'll be here
Until then my dear
I'm going, I'm going, going there
Don't ask me to make time
To travel back and forth
Let nature take its course
Maybe I'm open from all this ocean air

Mmm
And if it weren't for you
I'd be without a care
Setting sail to St Elsewhere

(Ooh hum hum, ooh hum hum)

Anywhere you sit you can see the sun
Unfortunately on this island I'm the only one
Same rules apply on a rainy day
And not such a pretty place to be
It just rains and rains and rains on me

Yeah

Send a simple sign I can understand
Then a flower grew out that sand
Before you know it I was back out on that sea
Now I don't mind it so much because as long
As I'm not there
Anywhere St Elsewhere

(Ooh hum hum, ooh hum hum)

Way over yonder there's a new frontier
Would it be so hard for you
To come and visit me here
I understand
Well just send me a message
In a bottle then baby

(Ooh hum hum, ooh hum hum)
(Ooh hum hum)
(She's a loser)

Gone Daddy Gone (02:30)
Gnarls Barkley • St. Elsewhere
Beautiful girl, lovely dress,
High school smiles, oh yes,
Beautiful girl, lovely dress,
Where she is now I can only guess.

Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone away.

When I see you,
Eyes will turn blue,
When I see you,
A thousand eyes turning blue.

Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone away.

I can tell by the way that you,
Switch and walk,
I can see by the way,
That you baby talk.
I know by the way that you,
Treat your man.
I can love you baby, 'til it's a crying.

Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone away.

Beautiful girl, lovely dress,
15 miles, oh yes,
Beautiful girl, lovely dress,
Where she is now I can only guess.

Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone.
Cuz its gone daddy gone,
The love is gone away.

Smiley Faces (03:07)
Gnarls Barkley • St. Elsewhere
What did you do?
What did you say?
Did you walk or did you run away?
Where are you now?
Where have you been?
Did you go alone or did you bring a friend?

I need to know this, 'cause I noticed you were smilin'.
Out in the sun, havin fun and feelin' free.
I can tell you know how hard this life can be
But you keep on smilin' for me.

What went right?
What went wrong?
Was it the story or was it the song?
Was it overnight or did it take you long?
Was knowing your weakness what made you strong?

Or all the above, oh how I love to see you smiling.
And oh yeah, take a little pain just in case.
You need something more to embrace.
To help you put on a smiling face.

Put on a smiling face.

Don't you go off into the new day with any doubt.
Here's a summary of something that you could smile about.
Say for instance my girlfriend, she bugs me all the time,
But the irony of it all is that she loves me all the time.

I want to be you whenever I see you smiling,
Because its easily one of the hardest things to do.
Your worries and fears become your friends,
And they end up smiling at you.

Put on a smiling face.

The Boogie Monster (02:52)
Gnarls Barkley • St. Elsewhere
I've got a monster in my closet
Someone's underneath my bed
The wind's knocking at my window
I'd kill it but it's already dead

It waits till the midnight hour to come
To torture me for the wrong i've done
it just sits there and stares me
And it won't let me get any sleep

[Repeat Hook]

At first I was scared when
I looked at his eyes
But now that I know him I'm not that surprised
I'm just waiting on the sun to rise
Oh how I wish that old sun would rise

[Repeat Hook]

I used to wonder why he looked familiar
Then I realized it was a mirror
And now it is plain to see,
The whole time the monster was me

[Repeat Hook]

Yeah Mmm The living dead
Only thing that could bring it back alive, Woman
Is some good good head
(Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha)

Feng Shui (01:29)
Gnarls Barkley • St. Elsewhere
In this house the decor is obvious up scour.
See clearly the theory of less is more.
A plant a pet and books on the shelf
And a frame on the wall where you can picture yourself.
And you're welcome to stay
But even your company must complement the Feng Shui.
Even down to what I have on
They do wonder to what extents I have gone.
Tailored and tapered couture to the curb.
Demanding the attention that it does deserve.
Fabrics for the forecast of the day
I admit it
Everything is fitted to fall in Feng Shui.
More importantly the way that I move.
If I'm in your town, my needles down on the groove.
On sight they know my song.
It ain't slow and it sho ain't long.
You see I do not play.
Forgive me father, I was forced out of Feng Shui.
A flow as subtle as a summer breeze.
Like the whispering winds and the talking trees.
To big to be boxed in, it bobs and weaves.
It evolves, it solves, it gives and receives.
And everything I say
is calculated, appropriated, written and arranged in Feng Shui!

Just a Thought (03:45)
Gnarls Barkley • St. Elsewhere
(Verse)
All I want is your understanding
As in the small act of affection
"Why is this my life?"
Is almost everybody's question

(Hook)
And I've tried
Everything but suicide
But it's crossed my mind

(Verse)
I prefer peace
Wouldn't have to have one worldly possession
But essentially I'm an animal
So just what do I do with all the aggression?

(Hook)
Well I've tried
Everything but suicide
But it's crossed my mind

(Verse)
Life is a one-way street, aint it?
If you could paint it
I'd draw myself going in the right direction
So I go all the way - like I really really know -
But the truth is I'm only guessin'

(Hook)
And I've tried
Everything but suicide
Oooh but it's crossed my mind
Just a thought

(Verse)
It's even dark in the daytime
It's not just good - it's Great Depression
When I was lost I even found myself
Lookin' in the gun's direction

(Hook)
And so I've tried
Everything but suicide
But yes - it's crossed my mind
But I'm fine

Transformer (02:20)
Gnarls Barkley • St. Elsewhere
[Hook]
I, I, I, I, I, I
Know how to transform
I can transform
Ill transform
I'm a transformer
I, I, I, I, I, I
Know how to transform
I can transform
Ill transform
I'm a transformer

I'm just being myself
Plus I gotta be me too
Silly of me to think that
I couldn't bring myself to be you
Ah but behold there is benevolence
Behind this but don't stare though
Be careful cause I'll kill you
With kindness
That why I'm dressed quite neatly
Cause Its easy and discreetly they seek me
And when they reach me and see me
they believe me completely
I'm a real live wire I ain't lying
If its between me and you I ain't dying
I can transform, I can transform, I can transform
Without even trying wow

[Repeat hook]

Now I'm someone else
Now someone can be me too
Behold the beautiful and bold
everyday I
Wake up to be new
Oh but its simple but they still can understand why
I think I can, I think I can, I think I can or can I
I'm a microchip off the old block
You know not but I was a robot
And I sold Rock and you would get
For sho shoot with a gold glock boy I rode pac
Something that you won't see again
What the hell might as well be a friend
I can transform, I'm a transformer
No telling who I will have to be again

Who Cares? (02:30)
Gnarls Barkley • St. Elsewhere
Basically I'm complicated
I have a hard time taking the easy way
I wouldn't call it schizophrenia
But I'll be at least 2 people today

If that's okay

And I can go on and on and on... but who cares?

It's deep how you can be so shallow
And I'm afraid cause I have no fear
And I didn't believe in magic
Until I watched you disappear

I wish you where here

And I can go on and on and on... but who cares?

You see, everybody is somebody
But nobody wants to be themselves
and If I ever wanted to understand me
I'll have to talk to someone else

Cause every little bit helps

And I can go on and on and on... but who cares?

Feels like... the surreal life
But it's still nice
Wish I could live twice
but I still might
if these bones heal right
I see a little light
though it's still night

Feels like... surreal like
But its still nice
Wish I could live twice
but I still might
if these bones heal right
I see a little light
though it's still night

And I can go on and on and on... but who cares?

And I can go on and on and on... but who cares?

Yeah, yeah
I'm on the line
I'm on the line
Once I clean my mirror
I'm a be feeling fine
Trying to get there
Is all that's on my mind
When they’re on the line
Oooh, yeah

Now even when though I run my race
With a smile on my face
It ain't easy
Naw it ain't easy
Feel like the life of the party
But it's all in your mind
On the line
Oooh, ah

I'm on the line
I'm on the line
Once I clean my mirror
I'm a be feeling fine
Even when you falling
Just pretend you're flying
When ya on the line

I'm with everybody
But I'm still alone
Just look down that's my line your standing on
Let's keep it friendly
We'll be just fine
But don't cross that line
No, no, no, no

Necromancer (03:00)
Gnarls Barkley • St. Elsewhere
Uh huh, wake up, wake up, wake up
Don't wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Uh huh, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
It's naughty, very naughty necrophilia
Without a care I'm compassionate about killing her
I'd have my way with what's left of the will in her
Cosmopolitans, and cocaine, and an occasional pill in her
When she spoke I saw a spark, but it was dark so
I drove her home when she died, sexy suicide
Sweet nothings for the numb, you feel where I'm coming from?
Have no fear, everything's fine, my girl parties all the time
Did you hear what I said? With this ring I thee wed
A body in my bed, she was cool when I met her
But I think I like her better dead

The production is progressive, but the reason is retro
The chords are cold-blooded murder, I named it neo-necro
I whispered in her ear to hear an echo, echo-co-co
I keep her - it's cheaper - I love too much to let go
We discussed over dinner how she would die before the day was done
So I've caught her just in time to have a little fun
And you could use a little sun
So scream and holler, run and play
Wish you could die another day
I'm glad to say that I've
Done what I could to revive
My softer side survived
Damn, that shit was all right, when she was alive
Ha ha ha...

Storm Coming (03:10)
Gnarls Barkley • St. Elsewhere
I could paint a picture with a pen
But a song will only scratch the skin
And there are still places I haven't been
Because I know what's in there is already in the air

Oh yeah, there's a storm on the way
There's a storm on the way, alright
There's a storm on the way, uh huh
And it's comin' no matter what I say
(And I come, I come, I come, I come)

Hey, hey, hey, there's truth in the thunder
Love in the lightning, the feeling is frightening
Yeah, isn't it exciting?
I'm something like stormy weather
If I weren't we would never
Huddle together, do I have to tell you
That I'm also the sunlight, that shines shortly after?
I just rain cause I have to, on to another chapter
I wish you lots of laughter
Til the next time you see me
Just remember you need me, I'm the storm coming
(And I come, I come, I come, I come)
Oh C'mon (And I come, I come, I come, I come), c'mon

Run towards the hills to avoid the high flood
I can do a dance that'll make the sky cry blood
Skills provoke, and seals will be broken open
All that's left to do is try my love, wooooooh

When I sing it's a cyclone
I'm writing a raging sea
Searching for a sign of life
Is it safe to say it's me?
Listen to our lives
The wind will whisper the way it is
I am going to happen, what a lovely day it is
Don't ask why
Just live, and, die

The Last Time (03:28)
Gnarls Barkley • St. Elsewhere
[Verse]
All work and no play
That's the way it is, ain't it?
There's a rhythm deep inside of you
And you must get reacquainted

[Hook]
When was the last time you danced?
When was the last time you danced?
Well come rock with me baby
Dance with me darling
Step with me sweetheart
The world is watching

[Verse]
Under an endless sky
Wish I could fly away forever (and ever)
And the poetry is so pure
When we are on the floor together (it's been a long time)

[Hook]

[Bridge]
Don't deny me any further
Let me have my way
Oooh, come closer, yeah
Let's dance the night away

[Hook]
