Jimmy Cream was keen His brain was always winnin' I can't keep tabs on mine It's really quite a joke I see him down the road I ask if he'd be willing To lend me 15P I'm dying for a smoke Don't arrange to have me sent to no asylum I'm just as sane as anyone It's a just a game I play for fun, for fun I told 'em "Look!, I said I'm not the way you're thinkin' Just when I'm down, I'll be the clown I'll play the fool" Don't arrange to have me sent to no asylum I'm just as sane as anyone It's a just a game I play for fun, for fun Will he take a sailboat ride? Well he is very likely to Will he feel good inside? Well he ain't very likely to Will he tell you he's alive? Yeah he is always trying to, yeah But nothin', no, no nothin' Does he say, oh no In the morning when the day's begun Hello Good morning, how are you? And in the evening or the noonday sun What a lovely afternoon Well I've been living next to you Bluesy Monday Is the one day that they come here Yeah when they haunt me And they taunt me in my cage I mock 'em all They're feelin' small, yeah they got no answer Yeah they're playin' dumb But I'm just laughing as they rage Don't arrange to have me sent to no asylum Well it's only a game I'm playing for fun Yeah I've been trying to fool everyone (No that's too heavy) Will he take a sailboat ride? Well he is very likely to Will he feel good inside? Yeah he ain't ever likely to Will he tell you he's alive? Well he is always trying to, yeah But nothin', no, no nothin' Does he every say, yeah In the morning when the day's begun Do you think it looks like rain? And in the evening or the noonday sun You know I nearly missed my train Well I've been living next to you my friend But what kind of friend are you? Oh, is it the beginning or the sorry end? Will I ever see it through? No I've never been insane Oh what's the game? I believe I'm dying, oh!
