The breath of the morning
I keep forgetting
the smell of the warm
summer air
I live in a town
where you can't
smell a thing
You watch your feet
for cracks in the pavement
Up above
aliens hover
making home movies
for the folks back home
of all these weird creatures
who lock up their spirits
drill holes in themselves
and live for their secrets
They're all
uptight
uptight
uptight
uptight
uptight
uptight
Ah
I wish that they'd
swoop down
in a country lane
late at night
while I'm driving
Take me on board
of their beautiful ship
Show me the world as I'd
love to see it
I'd tell all my friends
but they'd never
believe me
They'd think that
I'd finally
lost it completely
I'd show them the stars
and the meaning of life
They'd shut me away
but I'd be alright
alright
I'm alright
alright
I'm just
uptight
uptight
uptight
uptight
uptight
uptight
uptight
uptight
uptight
