Paranoid Songtext
von Steve Gunn

Step into the water, throw it like a thing
It′s a thing that swings in the waves and the sun
It's a pendulum reflecting gold and blue
A hand drawn map provides the facts
And gives the reason that you′ll come back
There's a glassy break just out past the dunes

Shapeless face among the weeds
The walkers sigh, your mother cries
They can't say a thing but they know what′s on your mind
Sit and wait, the landscape looks so different than your photo books
It′s gravity, man, you're such a fence


The song he sings, it′s called Paranoid
They just made it up, it's his favorite one
Not sure what it means, but it′s what he believes
And it's coming from nowhere at all

Step into the water, throw it like a thing
It′s a thing that swings in the waves and the sun
It's a pendulum reflecting gold and blue
A hand drawn map provides the facts
And gives the reason that you'll come back
There′s a glassy break just out past the dunes

Shapeless face among the weeds
The walkers sigh, your mother cries
They can′t say a thing but they know what's on your mind
Sit and wait, the landscape looks so different than your photo books
It′s gravity, man, you're such a fence


The song he sings, it′s called Paranoid
They just made it up, it's his favorite one
Not sure what it means, but it′s what he believes
And it's coming from nowhere at all
