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 mangey 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 those nice young men...
