Answers: I thought I read a long time ago somewhere that he wrote it about taking 'time off' to raise his little boy Sean...

Lennon wrote this to explain what he was up to in the last 6 years. Until Double Fantasy, his last album was Walls And Bridges, which was released in 1974. He was no longer interested in fame, and dedicated himself to his family - his wife Yoko and young son Sean. The song makes a statement that taking it easy and spending time with loved ones is anything but crazy. Working way too hard in an attempt to be a productive as possible, on the other hand, can be quite unfulfilling in the end.

yeah, it was about jumping off the superstar train he was riding, slowing down and enjoying the little things in life, just enjoying life with yoko and sean. other people couldn't understand anyone giving up the rock-n-roll lifestyle.
