VERSE1
A funny thing to do,
Is everyone like you,
'Cause people seldom change,
All just stay the same.
A funny thing to say,
Suppose you're just that way,
Although you're sure you're sure,
There really is no cure.
CHORUS
A funny kind of way,
A funny kind of day,
You're funny all the time,
Do you want a piece of mine.
'Cause I've seen it all before,
When you're closing all the doors,
It's not funny any more.
VERSE2
A funny thing to do,
Because the sky was blue,
You ran away for good,
'Cause no one understood.
The funny things you said,
Because the sky was red,
It all went to your head,
Because the sky was red.
CHORUS - Repeat
CHORUS - Repeat
VERSE3
A funny thing to do,
Is everyone like you,
'Cause people seldom change,
They all just stay the same.

This pattern is repeated several times throughout the song, Then the
guitar does some tricks with feedback which is impossible to tabulate.
