Lyrics
I know this respectable individual with a great personality
Struggles on the inside, a really nice guy
But I'm afraid he lacks conviction
Got these mental reservations concerning his own life
Let alone why, he doesn't know why
Ooh, guess I'm lookin' for some changes
For my lunatic friend
You see, he's been accosted by the local self-righteous vigilantes
In the name of God, with a scripture or two
And he believes, but he's not sure who his friends are
Or if they'd still be hangin' around with him
Boy, if they ever really knew
Ooh, guess I'm lookin' for some understanding
For my lunatic friend
Sometimes I wonder if there's any help for
My lunatic friend
Sometimes I cry for the love he's abusing.
My lunatic friend
Ooh, lookin' for a healing for a lunatic
I've got this lunatic friend
Altogether now, with feeling, once more, shall we sing
I've got this lunatic friend
I've got this lunatic friend
Be careful what you say, who you say it to
Don't give yourself away
Now there's an attractive inner circle in the eye of a hurricane
A kind of peace on the inside
But it moves with the storm
And it's a quiet strength in the midst of this raging desperation
All around me, I'd like to find, but I find myself torn
Ooh, I'm not lookin' for me, you understand
It's for my lunatic friend
Sometimes I wonder if there's any help for
My lunatic friend
Yeah, sometimes I cry for the love he's abusing
My lunatic friend
Oh, my lunatic friend
I've got this lunatic friend
I've got this lunatic friend
I've got this lunatic friend
I've got this lunatic friend
I've got this lunatic friend
I've got this lunatic friend
I've got this lunatic friend
