I know this respectable individual
with a great personality
Struggles on the inside,
A really nice guy,
but I'm afraid he lacks conviction,
Got these mental reservations
concerning his own life, let alone...
Why? He doesn't know why!
Ooo, guess I'm lookin'
for some changes for my lunatic friend
You see, he's been accosted
by the local self-righteous vigilantes
In the name of God,
with a scripture or two
And he believes,
but he's not sure who his friends are
Or if they'd still be hangin' around with him,
Boy, if they ever really knew.
Ooo, guess I'm lookin'
for some understanding for my lunatic friend
Sometimes I wonder
if there's any help for my lunatic friend
Yeah! Sometimes I cry
for the love he's abusing.
My lunatic friend
Ooo, lookin' for a healing for a lunatic!
Say!
I've got this lunatic friend!
Altogether now, with feeling,
once more, shall we sing!
I've got this lunatic friend!
Ha, ha!
I've got this lunatic friend!
Be careful what you say, who you say it to
Don't give yourself away! Yeah, ah!
Now there's an attractive inner circle
in the eye of a hurricane
A kind of peace on the inside,
but it moves with the storm
And it's a quiet strength
in the midst of this raging desperation
All around me, I'd like to find,
but I find myself torn
Ooo, I'm not lookin' for me,
you understand,
It's for my lunatic friend
Sometimes I wonder
if there's any help for my lunatic friend!
Yeah! Sometimes I cry
for the love he's abusing,
My lunatic friend, yeah, alright!
Oh, oh! My lunatic friend!
I've got this lunatic friend!
I've got this lunatic friend!
I've got this lunatic friend!
No, wait, hey! Oh man, uh,
what I'm tryin' to say, uh,
he's had it pretty tough.
Listen! No way! No,
I'm not talkin' about me man!
No you got it all wrong, dude!
He's a friend of mine!
Ah, I met him a couple of years back
No, really!
It's just for a friend of mine, man!
I just got to find out, that's all.
