Things Have Changed
A worried man with a worried mindNo one in front of me and nothing behindThere’s a woman on my lap and she’s drinking champagneGot white skin, got assassin’s eyesI’m looking up into the sapphire-tinted skiesI’m well dressed, waiting on the last train
Standing on the gallows with my head in a nooseAny minute now I’m expecting all hell to break loose
People are crazy and times are strangeI’m locked in tight, I’m out of rangeI used to care, but things have changed
This place ain’t doing me any goodI’m in the wrong town, I should be in HollywoodJust for a second there I thought I saw something moveGonna take dancing lessons, do the jitterbug ragAin’t no shortcuts, gonna dress in dragOnly a fool in here would think he’s got anything to prove
Lot of water under the bridge, lot of other stuff tooDon’t get up gentlemen, I’m only passing through
People are crazy and times are strangeI’m locked in tight, I’m out of rangeI used to care, but things have changed
I’ve been walking forty miles of bad roadIf the Bible is right, the world will explodeI’ve been trying to get as far away from myself as I canSome things are too hot to touchThe human mind can only stand so muchYou can’t win with a losing hand
Feel like falling in love with the first woman I meetPutting her in a wheelbarrow and wheeling her down the street
People are crazy and times are strangeI’m locked in tight, I’m out of rangeI used to care, but things have changed
I hurt easy, I just don’t show itYou can hurt someone and not even know itThe next sixty seconds could be like an eternityGonna get low down, gonna fly highAll the truth in the world adds up to one big lieI’m in love with a woman who don’t even appeal to me
Mr. Jinx and Miss Lucy, they jumped in the lakeI’m not that eager to make a mistake
People are crazy and times are strangeI’m locked in tight, I’m out of rangeI used to care, but things have changed
