Lyrics

Lazy stage-star; wanna be a raver
You've gotta make it all happen insane
Crazy raver; wanna be a big star
You've gotta make it all happen again
You want it easy but you don't understand
They'll crush your diamonds in a one night
Stand
You'll be a "biggie" then you'll be a
"Nobody-at-all"
So while you're there you'd better show us a
Ball
And wear your sequins or wear nothing at all
Take us to heaven with our backs to the wall
The climping's hard but it's easy to fall
Oh ! here's a monkey with a message for us all
"Go be a crazy raver, oh! oh! yeah
Go be a crazy raver."

Maybe lady; wanna be my baby
Go to heaven in your satin and lace
Crazy baby, gotta dress so shady
Then come an meet me in some far-out place
We'll go together like water and sand
Be seen together walking hand-in-hand
A pair of swells who've got nothing to do but
Romance
You'll be a rhapsody, the bell 'o the dance
Become a stir and play the public nuisance
Ascend a stairway up to paris in france
Become a lady of the dietrich stance
Then pick the one of your nouveau fancy
And be a crazy raver
And be a crazy raver
