Crazy Lyrics
Hear a little song to make you feel good
Put a little light in your day
It's a crazy time
And it's all been getting pretty serious
Oh, yeah
Hear a little song to make you feel right
(Feel right)
Send the blues away
It's a crazy game
Tell me who's to blame; I'm kinda curious
Oh, yeah
Right if you win
Wrong if you lose
Nobody listens when you're singing the blues
Something's the matter, but nothing gets done
Everyone's waiting for a place in the sun
Something is wrong, now; could something be wrong with me?
Oh, brother; why you gotta be so crazy?
Crazy, yeah
We're beautiful
We're beautiful
We're beautiful
We're beautiful
We're beautiful
We're beautiful
Give a little left, give a little right
Give a little black, give a little white
Give a little peace, give a little hope, give a little life
'Cause you know it seems that the situation's getting serious
Oh, yeah
Right if you win, wrong if you lose
Nobody listens when you're singing the blues
Something's the matter, but nothing gets done
There's no use in waiting for a place in the sun
Something is wrong, now; can something be wrong with me?
Oh, brother; why you gotta be so crazy?
Crazy, yeah
Something is wrong with me
Oh, brother; why you gotta be this crazy?
So crazy, so crazy
You gotta be so crazy
You gotta be so crazy
Crazy (Repeat 25 times)
Sing on and on and on and on
Sing on and on and on and on
Sing on and on and on and on
Sing on and on and on and on
Sing on and on and on and on
Sing on and on and on and on
Sing on and on and on and on
Sing on and on and on and on
We've got to be crazy
We've got to be crazy
Put a little light in your day
It's a crazy time
And it's all been getting pretty serious

the meaning is in the first few lines, it's a song to make you feel good
i think this album is fantastically underrated, i hear people saying how great crime and breakfast are, and even in the quietest moments and crisis, but i never hear people talking about famous last words
I too think that 'Famous' is underrated, but I can understand why it's not as popular. The process of separation between Roger Hodgson and Rick Davies really started during 'Breakfast' and was clearly defined in 'Famous'.

You can clearly pick out who wrote what, and, as with the Beatles final album, 'Famous' was a disunited Supertramp album. As is usually the case, the work of the two writers together worked out the good and bad aspects of their writing (Roger: meaning of life and harmony / Rick: bitterness and resentment) and produced a real balance.

I suppose I have to back...
I suppose I have to back up what I just suggested about Roger and Rick. To me, the typical Roger song is something like 'The Logical Song' (or solo, 'Had a dream'), whereas the typical Rick song for me is 'Goodbye Stranger' (or sans Roger Supertramp, 'Cannonball'). Listen to the anger in Brother Where You Bound or in 'School'.
When the two writers worked together, they tugged and pulled at a song until it fit both of them, without each other... Well, Roger's certainly had more success, but Supertramp isn't the same (or near as good) without him. Anyway, this song seems to be a Roger-only tune with the rest of Supertramp acting as a backing band.
Just another great Hogdson tune - not necessarily about something specific, just a lot of commonly held feelings wrapped up in a song.
