Crazy
Unraveling Love's Chaos: Pat Benatar's 'Crazy' Emotion Rollercoaster
Lyrics
People like to shake you up and put you down
People enjoy unsettling and criticizing you
Run you all around, drive you crazy
They make you go through various challenges, driving you to madness
Like to steal the roses right out of your bed
Metaphorically, others take away the beauty or joy in your life
Get inside your head, drive you crazy
Invading your thoughts and emotions, causing mental distress
Never really knew what love could be, yeh
Not understanding the true nature of love
Never really thought about you and me, yeh
Not considering the possibility of a romantic relationship
Crazy - I really want to go crazy
Expressing a desire to experience intense emotions, possibly love
Feel like I'm gonna go crazy
Feeling on the brink of losing control or sanity
Crazy - I really want to go crazy
Continuing the theme of desiring an intense, almost chaotic experience
Feel like I'm gonna go crazy
Reiterating the sense of impending madness or loss of control
Everybody tells you how you ought to be
Others dictate how you should be, but their perspective is flawed
What they think they see, they can't teach you, no
What people believe they see in you cannot provide meaningful guidance
Big world on your shoulder, it don't mean a thing
The burdens of the world are insignificant if they don't resonate with you
If that song they sing, hey - don't reach you
If the advice or opinions don't connect with your emotions, they're irrelevant
Never really knew what love could be, yeh
Reiterating a lack of understanding about the depth of love
Only want to think about you and me, yeh
Now, focusing solely on thoughts about a romantic partner
Crazy - I really want to go crazy
Repeating the desire for an intense, potentially tumultuous experience
Feel like I'm gonna go crazy
Feeling the imminent onset of chaos or emotional intensity
Crazy - I really want to go crazy
Continuing the expression of a strong desire for emotional intensity
Feel like I'm gonna go crazy
Reiterating the feeling of approaching madness or loss of control
Crazy, Crazy
Emphasizing the theme of craziness
Hey Baby, Baby, oh, oh, oh
An exclamation, possibly expressing frustration or desperation
Crazy, Crazy, Crazy
Repeating the theme of craziness for emphasis
Crazy - I really want to go crazy
Reiterating the strong desire for an intense emotional experience
Feel like I'm gonna go crazy
Feeling the impending loss of control or sanity
Feel like I'm gonna go crazy
Repeating the sense of approaching madness
Crazy - feel like I'm gonna go crazy
Reiterating the feeling of going crazy
