Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A worried woman with a worried mind
No one in front of me, and nothin' behind
Sittin' on a strange man's lap drinkin' champagne
He's got light skin and an assassin's eye
I'm lookin' up into a sapphire-tinted sky
I'm all dressed up, I'm waitin' on the last train
[Verse 2]
Feel like I'm standin' on the gallows with my head in a noose
Any minute, now, I'm expectin' all hell to break loose
[Verse 3]
People are crazy, and times are strange
I'm locked in tight, and I'm way outta range
I used to care, but things have changed
[Verse 4]
Forty miles of bad road
If the Bible's right, the whole damn world's gonna explode
I been tryin' to get just as far away from myself as I can
Some things are just too hot to touch
The human mind can only stand so much
You just can't win with a losin' hand
[Verse 5]
Lotta water under the bridge, a lotta other stuff too
Don't get up, gentlemen, I'm just passin' through
[Verse 6]
People are crazy, times are strange
I'm locked in tight, and I'm way outta range
I used to care, but things have changed
[Verse 7]
This place here ain't doin' me no good
It's got me all fucked up, I should be in Hollywood
Just for a second, there, I thought I saw somethin' move
Gonna take dancin' lessons, gon' learn the jitterbug rag
I ain't takin' no shortcuts, and I might even dress in drag
Only a fool here would think he's got anything to prove
[Verse 8]
Feel like fallin' in love with the very next man I see
Grab him by the hand, and go runnin' on down the street
[Verse 9]
People are crazy, times are strange
I'm locked in tight, and I'm way outta range
I used to care, but things have changed
[Verse 10]
Feel like fallin' in love with the very next man I meet
Grab him by the hand, and go runnin' down the street
[Verse 11]
People are crazy, and times are strange
I'm locked in tight, and I'm outta range
I used to care, but things have changed
[Verse 12]
I hurt easy, but I just don't show it
You can hurt somebody and not even know it
The next sixty seconds could be like an eternity
Gonna get low down, fly real high
All the truth in the world ain't nothin' but one big lie
I'm in love with a man that don't even appeal to me
[Verse 13]
Some folks would just go and jump in the lake
I ain't so eager to make that kinda mistake
[Verse 14]
People are crazy, and times are strange
I'm locked in tight, but I'm way outta range
I used to care, ha, but things have changed
[Verse 15]
Things have changed
Things have changed
Things have changed
Things have changed
[Verse 16]
Things have changed
