Modern man, what is it?
Just a collection of
complexes and neurotic impulses
that occasionally break through
You mean, sometimes you blow your top
Like me!
I try hard to stay controlled
but I get carried away
Try to act aloof and cold
But I get carried away
Carried away!
Carried away!
I get carried away!
When I sit and listen to a symphony,
why can't I just say the music's grand?
Why must I leap up on the stage hysterically
They're playing it staccato
and everything goes blottal
I grabbed the maestro stick and started leading the band!
Carried away!
Carried away!
I get carried away!
And when I go to see a moving picture show
and I'm watching actors in a scene
I stop to think what's happening is really so
the girl I must protect her,
the villain don't respect her,
I leap to her defense and knock a hole right through the screen-
Carried away!
Carried away!
He gets carried misparade- away!
I try hard to keep detached
but I get carried away
Try to act less booby-hatched
But I get carried away
Carried away!
Carried away!
He gets carried, he's carried away
When shopping, I'm a sucker for a bargain sale
if something is marked down upon a shelf
my sense for something that is practical begins to fail
I buy one, then another, then another, then another
I buy the whole store out and I'm in business for myself
Carried away!
Carried away!
He gets carried, he's carried away
And when I go to see my friends off on a train
Golly, how I hate to see them go!
And then my love of travelling I can't restrain
The time has come for parting
The train's already starting
I hop afreight and in a flash now I'm off to Timbuktu!
Carried away!
Carried away!
We get carried, miscarried, aaAAAAAH
