Lyrics The Magnetic Fields

The Magnetic Fields

(Crazy for You But) Not That Crazy

I built a ship with my own hands

To take us to the moon

I took a pen in my own hand

And wrote you a hundred tunes

Now I'm crazy for you, but not that crazy

I'm crazy for you, but not that crazy

I pretended you were Jesus

You were just dying to save me

I stood beneath your window

With my ukulele

I made my yard a playground

Just in case we had a baby

Now I'm crazy for you, but not that crazy

I'm crazy for you, but not that crazy

I treated you like radium

I treated you like God

You were my glass menagerie

Did you not find that odd?

I dwelt within, and went without

And broke my virgin flesh

I performed acts of devotion

As if you were Ganesh

Now I'm crazy for you, but not that crazy

I'm crazy for you, but not that crazy
