lyrics
There are bats in the belfry and the bell is cracked
It rang once for my love, but she never came back
I'm still waiting on her letter, but the facts is facts
She went crazy...
I met her one time coming through a toll booth
She had 3 buttons down and a lipstick tooth
She seemed pretty open to making change
So I got her phone number, gave her a ring
She asked me to meet her at the coffee shop
She said she hates coffee, but that's her spot
If you don't like coffee, I said, why bother?
She said goddamn, they have the best hot water
There are bats in the belfry and the bell is cracked
It rang once for my love, but she never came back
I'm still waiting on her letter, but the facts is facts
She went crazy...nearly gave me...
A heart attack
I went to see her at the institute
An orderly escorted me to her room
The window was open, and the wind blew through
Nothing left but the smell of perfume
Doctor says I'd be better off to let her go
But I know a thing or two the doctor don't
Doctor says she don't act like a good woman should
Say, but I never seen a straighjacket look so good
There are bats in the belfry and the bell is cracked
It rang once for my love, but she never came back
I'm still waiting on her letter, but the facts is facts
She went crazy...nearly gave me...
A heart attack
In one single moment, she fulfilled all my wishes
Then she turned around and broke all my dishes
There is no denying that she's got a few screws loose
But nutty girls need love too
There are bats in the belfry and the bell is cracked
It rang once for my love, but she never came back
I'm still waiting on her letter, but the facts is facts
She went crazy...nearly gave me...
A heart attack
