I know you say I'm a crazy mixed-up lunatic
But that's okay 'cos I love you in a crazy way
The chances are I'm not the boy you fantasized about
But give me a chance, You never know I might brainwash you
Chances are you're seeing some other freak tonight
And hope that maybe this time he's Mister Right
But if he turns out wrong you know that I'll be there
I may be second best, but life is never fair
I wanna be there with you
I wanna be there with you
I wanna be there with you
In my own crazy mixed-up little way
I promise to take my medication every day
Just get rid of "Mister nine-to-five" or there will be hell to pay
I'll promise not to bark at the moon in your neighborhood
I'll even wear my straitjacket, it'll be no good
I know by now you probably even hate my guts
But just don't tell me it's because you think I'm nuts
And if you choose a normal boy, He'd better be aware:
I may be second best, but life is never fair
I wanna be there with you
I wanna be there with you
I wanna be there with you
In my own crazy mixed-up little way
