Madhouse baby 
Just swing me around 
We were swimming, we were screaming 
We were climbing the walls 
And tear them down 
What seemed like a good idea at the time 
Was my madhouse 

A liar, forgetter, bleeder 
Hanging from the door, falling on the floor schemer 
Hungry for the darkest dark 
Oh yes, seemed like a good idea at the time 
Was my madhouse 

Slow, slow, slow motion 
Driving like a train wreck sailing overhead 
When the nighttime sky turns grey in the morning 
Madhouse 
Dangerous down 

We were laughing, we were singing 
We were shaking our tails 
We were walking on our hands 
Yes, it seemed like a good idea at the time 
Was my madhouse 

Slow, slow, slow motion 
Driving like a train wreck sailing overhead 
When the nighttime sky turns grey in the morning 
You're my madhouse 
Dangerous way down, down, down 

We were laughing, we were singing 
We were shaking our tails 
We were walking on our hands 
Oh, what seemed like a good idea at the time 
Was my madhouse 
Oh, it seemed like a good idea at the time 
Was my madhouse 
Oh, you seemed like a good idea at the time 
Madhouse
