The Jacksons - Art of Madness (with lyrics)

"Art of Madness" is from The Jacksons' last album 2300 Jackson Street released in 1989. By that time The Jacksons consisted of Jackie, Jermaine, Tito and Randy - Marlon and Michael were only featured on the title track. Anyways, I think this is a really good song - rate and enjoy! :-)

The quality of mercy is not strained
It drops like the gentle rain from heaven
Upon the place beneath
It is twice blest
It blesses us with heart
It blesses me with mad, mad..

I can't help the things I do
Though they might seem strange to you
Got my mind, just spinning round
Inside, outside, upside down

There's an art to all this madness
Though it seems insane to you
There's a rhyme to all the reason
In everything I do
Have you any imagination
Of what I'm going through
There's an art to all this madness
I'm just crazy over you

People just can't understand
They don't think I'm a normal man
So tell me why do they walk around
Using half of their brain
You tell me now who's insane

There's an art to all this madness
Though it seems insane to you
There's a rhyme to all the reason
In everything I do
Have you any imagination
Of what I'm going through
There's an art to all this madness
I'm just crazy over you

Art of madness
There a problem son
I don't know you no more
What you gon' do

Went to the doctor the other day
Just to make sure if I was OK
The diagnosis said I was totally insane
I found out the doctor used half of his brain

There's an art to all this madness
Though it seems insane to you
There's a rhyme to all the reason
In everything I do
Have you any imagination
Of what I'm going through
There's an art to all this madness
I'm just crazy over you

Art of madness
(repeat)
