[Verse 1]
A man decides after seventy years
That what he goes there for, is to unlock the door
While all those around him criticize and sleep
And through a fractal on a breaking wall
I see you, my friend, and touch your face again
Miracles will happen as we dream

[Chorus]
But we're never gonna survive
Unless we get a little crazy
No, we're never gonna survive
Unless we are a little crazy

[Chorus]
But we're never gonna survive
Unless we get a little crazy
No, we're never gonna survive
Unless we are a little crazy

[Verse 2]
See yellow people walking through my head
One of them's got a gun to shoot the other one
And yet together, they were friends at school
Oh, get it, get it, get it, get it, no, no, no
If I were there when we first took the pill
Then maybe, then maybe, then maybe, then maybe
Miracles will happen as we speak

[Chorus]
But we're never gonna survive
Unless we get a little crazy
No, we're never gonna survive
Unless we are a little crazy

[Chorus]
But we're never gonna survive
Unless we get a little crazy
No, we're never gonna survive
Unless we are a little crazy

[Chorus]
But we're never gonna survive
Unless we get a little crazy
No, we're never gonna survive
Unless we are a little crazy

[Bridge]
In a sky full of people, only some want to fly
Isn't that crazy?
In a world full of people, only some want to fly
Isn't that crazy, crazy?
In a Heaven of people, there's only some want to fly
Isn't that crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy?

[Chorus]
But we're never gonna survive
Unless we get a little crazy
No, we're never gonna survive
Unless we are a little crazy

[Chorus]
But we're never gonna survive
Unless we get a little crazy
No, we're never gonna survive
Unless we are a little crazy

[Chorus]
But we're never gonna survive
Unless we get a little crazy
No, we're never gonna survive
Unless we are a little crazy

Alanis Nadine Morissette was born on June 1, 1974, in Ottawa, Canada. At age 6, she began taking piano lessons, and by the time she was 9, she was writing her own songs.

When she was 11, Morissette joined the cast of a Nickelodeon children’s show called You Can’t Do That on Television, and saved up her earnings. In 1987, she used them to self-release her first track, “Fate Stay With Me.” The song caught the attention of record label MCA Canada; at age 14, Morissette signed a contract with the company. She released a self-titled album, Alanis, in 1991, which went platinum. Quickly following up the success of her first album, Morissette released Now Is The Time a year later, though it did not reach the same level of popularity.

In 1994 Morissette moved to Los Angeles teamed up with industry veteran Glen Ballard, and she began to approach songwriting more organically.
