Nervous

I was walking down the street when I heard CNN
Through the window of a bar and I thought here we go again
So I stood there with the crowd, I watched the world go by
While everyone around me kept on glancing at the sky
Made me nervous

So I went back to my house and got down on my knees
It was quiet as a mouse when he spies a chunk of cheese
I said Lord won't you help me 'cause I cannot see the light
Then I thought about the bomb and I closed my curtains tight
Made me nervous

It's a complicated world and it's a little too much
I'm a complicated girl but I've lost my touch
And I don't know what to do, I don't know where to turn
I walk around in circles and I wish I was a germ

'Cause if I was a germ, I would never be scared
I could hide in someone's finger or a little piece of hair
I could give 'em all the clap, I could kill 'em in their sleep
Nobody'd fight back, they wouldn't know it was me
They make me nervous

I'm nervous for the President and for the FBI
I'm nervous for the government and I don't wanna fly
I'm nervous about the Arabs when I look up at the sky
And I think I'm being hijacked if you look me in the eye
I'm really nervous

I don't wanna revolution and I don't wanna fight a war
I don't wanna think about it or be nervous any more
So I'm going back to bed with a dirty magazine
And I'm hoping when I wake up it'll turn out to be a dream

So if you're feeling nervous you can come on to my place
We can drink a glass of wine and pretend we're on a date
We can sing Kumbaya by the light of my TV
We can move to Dakota, it's all the same to me

It'll be all right, it'll be okay
We will all survive and face another day
But for tonight I'll tell you my dears
That I'm just a little nervous and I'm very glad you're here
