Paralyzed - Graham Parker
I'll wait for someone to tell me what I already know
And I'll wait for my grip to fail me then I'll just let it go
She's so hard to please so I just freeze nailed down by whispers, looks and sighs
And I'm so paralysed, I am so paralysed
I wait for you to disown me when you leave I won't look
I wait for someone to phone me with the phone off the hook
I get up to leave but I just deceive
You all the time pretending I'm so paralysed I'm so paralysed
I'm so paralysed I'm just paralysed
I wait for mistakes to happen so I can't put them right
I wait for someone to latch on, but no-one's that bright
I say it can't be done, let's turn and run completely normal in my own eyes
to be so paralysed
Got the fear of falling from a great height
Can't open my parachute stiff with fright
I woke up naked in the high street with lead boots on both feet
I was paralysed I'm so paralysed
I'm so paralysed
She's so hard to please so I just freeze
nailed down by whispers, looks and sighs
And I'm so paralysed, I am so paralysed
Got me so paralysed, I'm so paralysed
I am so paralyse, I am so paralysed
