Lyrics
CHORUS
It’s the World’s Gone Crazy cotillion,
The ladies are dancin’ alone;
‘Cause the side men all want to be front men
And the front men all want to go home.

The Johnny-come-latelys are comin’ in early,
The early bird’s showin’ up late;
The straight men all want to be funny,
The funny men all want to get straight.

CHORUS

The villains have turned into heroes;
The heroes have turned into heels,
The dealers all want to be lovers
And the lovers all want to make deals.

CHORUS

The meek they ain’t inherited nothin’,
Our leaders are fallin’ behind,
So I’m singin’ my songs to the deaf men,
Dancin’ my dance to the blind.

CHORUS
