evil eddie - paranoid lyrics
[verse 1: evil eddie]
the old man who lives across from me, i swear that he’s been watchin’ me
just like a stalker, he’s been gawkin’ at me constantly
i’ll look across and he’ll be sittin’ in his stoop
staring dead ahead as if to witness every move that i make
i lie awake and try to work out what the deal is
like maybe he’s demented, can’t remember where his pill is
the rumour millers said he was a military spy
till the night he put some bullets in his children and his wife
they said from all the pressure that he kinda lost the plot
and that he’s been in prison since his wife and kids were shot
the story made me nervous, so one night i rang the cops
tryna find out if this pensioner’s a psychopath or what
the coppers checked the file and said, as freaky as he seemed
as far as they could tell, this guy was squeaky f+cking clean
he’d never had a ticket or cheated on his tax
and their professional opinion was i need to just relax because i’m paranoid
[chorus: evil eddie]
just because you’re paranoid, doesn’t mean they’re not
coming to get you
just because you’re paranoid, doesn’t mean they’re not
coming to get you
[verse 2: evil eddie]
so as i’m hangin’ up the phone, i’m hearin’ all the coppers laugh
like some kinda giant joke was goin’ on on my behalf
they told me i was crazy, but what’s even more suspicious
my phone took on a buzz like it was bugged and full of glitches
and since i’m always thinkin’, i could hardly get to sleep
then a car i’d never seen just started parkin’ on my street
and everywhere i went, i felt like somebody would follow me
i’d stop (+helicopter blades chopping+) and notice there was choppers over top of me
and (+siren+) coppers in my rear view every time i’d peer through
(+phone ringing+) was blocking calls, plus the water tasted weird too
for lack of sleep, i thought i oughta see the doc
so i saw him and told him ’bout the stalker and the cops
i asked if he could write a script for sh+t to knock me out
so i could sleep with all these undercover pigs around my house
he said i’m either crazy or i t++tered on the brink
and his professional opinion was i need to see a shrink because i’m paranoid
[chorus: evil eddie]
just because you’re paranoid, doesn’t mean they’re not
coming to get you
just because you’re paranoid, doesn’t mean they’re not
coming to get you
just because you’re paranoid, doesn’t mean they’re not
coming to get you
just because you’re paranoid, doesn’t mean they’re not
coming to get you
[verse 3: evil eddie]
and so i left the doctor’s office feeling really on the edge
knowin’ no one that i’d spoken to believed in what i said
and then it cl!cked, the realisation locked into perspective
that the pensioner, the doctor and the cops are all connected
they told me i was nuts when i discovered they were tailin’
tryna keep me in submission while just under their surveillance
probably ’cause they know i know they know i know the truth
about this fraudulent democracy because i got the proof
so midnight at my crib, i started watchin’ though the curtains
and ’cause the jig was up i thought they’d top me now for certain
determined that i’d take somebody with me when i go
i thought, “who better than the stalker pr+ck across the road?”
and so i snuck into the back of his house just like a thief
had the handle of my jack about to do him in his sleep
and then the (+floorboards creaking+) floor creaked as i reached him with the iron rod (+dog growl+)
that’s when i saw his guide dog, i think i’m f+ckin’ paranoid
[pre+chorus: actor who played fred clanton]
all i could think about was fear
the way everyone was all against me
but i am well, and i know it
i’m ready to face the world again
[chorus: evil eddie]
just because you’re paranoid, doesn’t mean they’re not
coming to get you
just because you’re paranoid, doesn’t mean they’re not
coming to get you
just because you’re paranoid, doesn’t mean they’re not
coming to get you
just because you’re paranoid, doesn’t mean they’re not
coming to get you
