Mad woman, leave me alone
When I tell a joke, you throw a fit
And frown and scowl and moan
Mad woman, leave me alone
You creep up on me and make me jump
When I think I’m on my own.
Mad woman, leave me alone
I think it’s someone sane
But it’s you, screaming down the phone
Mad woman, leave me alone
With a touch like ice
And eyes as big as scones
Mad woman, leave me alone
You stole the skies, the seas, the land
Now the distance between us has grown
Mad woman, leave me alone
You’re so mean
You put my boots in a washing machine
Mad woman, leave me alone
You’re friends are all as mad as you
That you’ve clearly shown
Mad woman, leave me alone
I’ve put two and two together
And I’m tired of all your clones
Mad woman, I’ve set you free
Despite all that you’ve told me, I know
It’s you that’s mad, not me.
