Things Have Changed

A worried man with a worried mind
No one in front of me and nothin' behind
There's a woman on my lap and she's drinkin' champagne.
Got white skin, got assassin's eyes
I'm looking up into the sapphire tinted skies
I'm well dressed, waitin' on the last train.

Standin' on the gallows with my head in a noose
Any minute now I'm expectin' all hell to break loose.

People are crazy and times are strange
I'm locked in tight, I'm outta range
I used to care, but things have changed.

This place ain't doing me any good
I'm in the wrong town, I should be in Hollywood
Just for a second there I thought I saw something move.
Gonna take dancing lessons, do the jitterbug rag
Ain't no shortcuts, gonna dress in drag
Only a fool in here would think he's got anything to prove.

Lot of water under the bridge, lot of other stuff too
Don't get up gentlemen, I'm only passin' through.

People are crazy and times are strange
I'm locked in tight, I'm out of range
I used to care, but things have changed

I've been walking forty miles of bad road
If the bible is right, the world will explode.
I've been trying to get as far away from myself as I can.
Some things are too hot to touch
The human mind can only stand so much
You can't win with a losin' hand.

Feel like fallin' in love with the first woman I meet
Puttin' her in a wheel barrow and wheelin' her down the street.

People are crazy and times are strange
I'm locked in tight, I'm out of range
I used to care, but things have changed.

I hurt easy, I just don't show it
You can hurt someone and not even know it
The next sixty seconds could be like an eternity.
Gonna get low down, gonna fly high
All the truth in the world add up to one big lie
I'm love with a woman who don't even appeal to me.

Mr. Jinx and Miss Lucy, they jumped in the lake
I'm not that eager to make a mistake.

People are crazy and times are strange
I'm locked in tight, I'm outta range
I used to care, but things have changed.
