Saturday Night Paranoia

Summer garden party, Saturday night
strongest thing passing round’s red wine
some girl with a spliff wants a light
twenty years since I gave it a try

Now everybody’s speakin’ in tongues
can’t talk - don’t recognize anyone
I only took a couple of tokes
but my lips - hell they’re real, real gone

Somebody tell me
what the hell’s going on?…

Saturday night paranoia
stuck in the middle with me
found my limit for Rock ‘n’ Roll
I’m higher than I’d care to be -
Saturday night paranoia
stuck in the middle with me
I’m the clown in Stealer’s Wheel
I’m higher than I’d care to be

Seems some joker’s run off with my legs
I’m hoping’ that an ear ain’t next
say a prayer but not a soul looks
I think I mighta said too much

Now it’s dark and everyone’s inside
left me here staring up at the sky
I’ve forgotten how to move my eyes
gave up drugs - now I’m remembering why

Somebody help me
off this fairground ride…
