This World Is Crazy Lyrics

This world is crazy
Yeah, that's what it is
Here we are now
Far away from the city
Don't we look pretty?
I wish I had a ukulele, oh lila oh lila all night (?)
I wish I had a ukulele, oh lila oh lila all night

The roses came
In early July
I knew I had to
See you one more time
When the fields are all green
Even though we know it's not passing time
'Cause we won't jump our trains
To the cities where we came from
And wave goodbye

La la la la la la la la la (x2)

This world is crazy
Yeah, that's what it is
And here we are now
Far away from the city
Don't we look pretty?
I wish I had a ukulele, oh lila oh lila, all night
I wish I had a ukulele, oh lila oh lila, all night
I wish I had a ukulele, oh lila oh lila, all night
I wish I had a ukulele, oh lila oh lila, all night

I would have thought it was: 'ukulele ulele ulele ulele-e' like, she's just repeating the last part of ukulele. it's just the accent that makes it sound like 'lila'.

Lyric Correction

yes i agree. she's just repeating the end of the word 'ukalele'. with a strong accent. which is very nice to the ear. i love the way she says 'owl' in another of her songs.

yes, she's just saying the end of the word 'ukalele' with an accent (i think she's swiss) you must hear her pronounce 'owl' in another song with that word in the title. it's beautiful.
