Lyrics:

(first release, live version, 2000, portsmouth, england)


One two three four??


I'm a worried man, got a worried mind

No one in front of me, no one behind

There's a woman on my lap and she's drinking champagne.

Got white skin, got assassin's eyes

I'm looking up into the sapphire tinted skies

I'm well dressed, waiting 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, I'm only passing through.

People are crazy, 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'm trying to get as far away from myself as I can.

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, wheelin' her down the street.

People are crazy, 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 adds up to one big lie

I'm in love with a woman that don't even appeal to me.

Mr. jinx and miss lucy, they, they jumped in the lake

I'm not that eager, not that eager to make a mistake.

People are crazy, times are strange

I'm locked in tight, I'm outta range

I used to care, but things have changed.
