The Madman Lyrics & Chords By Eric Burdon & The Animals
(Zoot Money):Sometimes I'm old
(Eric Burdon):Sometimes I'm young
(Zoot Money):Sometimes I'm smiling
(Eric Burdon):Sometimes I frown
(Zoot Money):I'm ever-changing,
Turning like the sky
(Zoot and Burdon)
Well, sometimes I'm bold
Sometimes I'm shy
I never seem
To compromise
I'm always there
And I always try
And if one can tell...
Aaaaa...
(Eric Burdon):that I'm a Gemini...
(Zoot Money)
'Cause I'm a Gemini (Gemini), yeah
You know that I'm a Gemini (Gemini)
But I, I'm a Gemini (Gemini)
Yes, now I'm a Gemini (Gemini)
I have two sides, one dark and one light
(Eric Burdon):I've got two minds, baby. One is black and
(Zoot Money):One is white
And they're as different
As day or night
(Zoot and Burdon)
Well, I love today
But I hate tomorrow
I don't spend time;
I only borrow
Don't blame me
For the way things are
Because I can't control...
(Eric Burdon):what is in the stars...
(Zoot Money)
'Cause I'm a Gemini (Gemini)
Well, I'm a Gemini (Gemini)
Don't you know that I'm a Gemimi? (Gemini) Hey,
You've got to believe a Gemini (Gemini) Yes
Dialogue:
(Eric Burdon): Here comes side two.
(Zoot Money): Funny, I can only see one side.
(Eric Burdon): That's because you are biased, Gemini.
(Zoot Money): I is not.
(Eric Burdon): It must be, if you can only see one side.
(Zoot Money): There is only one side.
(Eric Burdon): No, there are two.
(Zoot Money): There's only my side.
(Eric Burdon): There is my side, too.
(Zoot Money): But if there are more than two of us,
then there are three sides.
(Eric Burdon): No, there are two sides.
(Zoot Money): There MUST be more than two.
(Eric Burdon): There is wrong.
(Zoot Money): There IS more than two.
(Eric Burdon): There is right.
(Zoot Money): There is wrong.
(Eric Burdon): Right.
(Zoot Money): Wrong!
(Eric Burdon): And right.
(Zoot Money): Black. Heh, heh.
(Eric Burdon): Heh, heh.
(Zoot Money): Heh, heh.
(Eric Burdon): And light.
(Zoot Money): Right.
(Eric Burdon): Right.
(Zoot Money): I can see again.
(Eric Burdon): Day
(Zoot Money): Night?
(Eric Burdon): And night.
(Zoot Money): Ah.
(Eric Burdon): Two sides.
(Zoot Money): Two sides.
(Eric Burdon): Gemini.
(Zoot Money): Gemini.
(Eric Burdon): Gemini.
(Zoot Money): Gemini.

(Zoot Money)
I have two sides, one dark and one light
(Eric Burdon):I've got two minds, baby. One is black and
(Zoot Money):One is white
And they're as different
As day or night
(Zoot and Burdon)
Well, I love today
Gut I hate tomorrow
I don't spend time;
I only borrow
Don't blame me
For the way things are
Because I can't control...
(Eric Burdon):what is in the stars...
(Zoot Money):Aaaa...
'Cause I'm a Gemini. (Gemini) Yes, I am
Don't you know that I'm a Gemini? (Gemini) Yeah
Oh, yes, I'm a Gemini (Gemini)
Do you believe that I'm a Gemini? (Gemini)
Well, I'm a Gemini (Gemini)
Well, I'm a Gemini (Gemini)
Well, I'm a Gemini (Gemini)
Well, I'm a Gemini (Gemini)
(Burdon)
Two face
You ask me how
I've become mad now
There was a day,
I had so much say
What of my feet?
Life seemed to be sweet
I was admired
But I was so tired
Go through the dam
Lion and lamb
Know what you're sayin'?
Know what you're sayin'?!!!?!
Things went okay,
And then one day, "Pow!"
I can expound
With the new words found
If reasons gone,
How do I live on?
Because I know
Which way I must go
Where can I go,
Now that I know
Time has gone by?
Time has gone by
Isn't that the madman,
Running through the fields?
Isn't that the madman?
Wonder how he feels...
You look at me,
What do you see now?
Is it so bad,
Or am I just sad?
Are you in doubt?
There is a way out
I've seen the crack
I cannot come back
I'm not afraid
Sticks out a way
Into the tide
Be by my side
Isn't that the madman,
Running through the fields?
Isn't that the madman?
Wonder how he feels...
You ask me how
I've become mad now (fade out)
