Am I crazy or is it just me?.

Why do they say you can't take money with you when you go? So what do you do if you go out shopping? The grass is 'always greener on the other side? Not if you have a sandy beach on the other side You can't always get everything you want? Have the shops closed down? A Bird in the hand is worth two in the bush Don't they mean tree? Is it cold outside or is it me? Go out and find out Money can't buy you love? But it can pay for a hooker For a bit of love Why do they say I dipped my toes in water? What's the point unless you have dirty toes? If laughter is the best medicine? So do Doctors give you pills? And not a clown? Love comes to those who least expect it? Does that mean when I'm in jail? I get four square meals a day? When do they come around? There's always some 'ONE' out there for everyone? What a lucky 'ONE' ? Paint the world like a rainbow? Have they enough paint? You only get one chance in life? I've blown it then? Money doesn't grow on trees Tell that to a fruit farmer? There is more joy in giving than taking.? Not if you are a thief it's not? Man revolutionized the world? What about the women? You can't be hanged twice? What if you're a twin? Why do birds In winter always fly south Don't have a map? I'm not the person I was yesterday? None of us are? Where do babies come from? Father 'ask you're mum'? To be honest? Does that mean they have been lying? Women are stronger than men? Well let them do the heavy lifting then? It takes one to know one? Are they talking about themselves? Cheer up things will get better? Not when you're about to be executed it's not? If courting couples are too busy watching the sunrise And the sun goes down When do the eat and wash the dishes back home? You can always tell what someone is like by a mile? What about a foot? Time takes it's time? Where to? Their feet may fit your shoes one day? Do they have a size eleven? You are better off on your own? Not if you're lonely and need someone to hold? The sun always shines on the right side? How would I know I'm blind? Crazy world crazy people?.
