[Verse]
Crazy Willy had a plan
A genius in his mind
Said the world’s a treasure chest
Just waiting for my kind
He strolled into the bank
All swagger no disguise
Thought he was invisible
Oh how the fool flies
[Chorus]
Crazy Willy
You’re a clown in a crown
Thinkin’ you’re the king but the law’s got you down
Crazy Willy
Thought you’d break free
But the bars are callin’
That’s your destiny
[Verse 2]
He left his prints on the safe
His name on the note
Signed it with a flourish
“Catch me if you don’t”
Waved at the cameras
Gave ’em all a grin
Said I’m the sharpest blade but the dullest always win
[Prechorus]
Sirens howled
His heart stood still
The genius
Undone by his own thrill
[Chorus]
Crazy Willy
You’re a clown in a crown
Thinkin’ you’re the king but the law’s got you down
Crazy Willy
Thought you’d break free
But the bars are callin’
That’s your destiny
[Bridge]
He said
“I’m smarter than the cops
They’ll never catch me”
But tripped on his shoelace in front of the deputy
The judge shook his head
The jury laughed out loud
Willy’s face turned red as he cursed the crowd
