You think you're goin' nowhere
When you're walkin' down the street
Actin' like you just don't care
When life could be so sweet

But why you wanna be like that?
'Cause if there's nothin new
You're not foolin' no one
You're not even foolin' you

So walk a little slower
And open up your eyes
Sometimes it's so hard to see
The good things passin' by

And there may never be a sign
No flashing neon light
Tellin' you to make your move
Or when the time is right

So why not take a crazy chance?
Why not do a crazy dance?
If you lose the moment
You might lose a lot
So why not, why not?

Why not take a crazy chance?
Why not take a crazy chance?

You always dress in yellow
When you wanna dress in gold
Instead of listenin' to your heart
You do just what you're told

You keep waitin' where you are
And what you'll never know
Let's just get into your car
And go baby, go

So why not take a crazy chance?
Why not do a crazy dance?
If you lose the moment
You might lose a lot
So why not, why not?

I can be the one for you
Yeah, maybe yes, maybe no
It could be the thing to do
What I'm sayin' is ya gotta let me know

You'll never get to Heaven
Or even to L.A.
If you don't believe
There's a way

Why not take a star from the sky?
Why not spread your wings and fly?
It might take a little
And it might take a lot
But why not, why not?

Why not take a crazy chance?
Why not do a crazy dance?
If you lose the moment
You might lose a lot
So why not, why not?
