He's always with me - huh He's always there Always knows where to find me It doesn't matter where I hide 'Cause Paranoia finds me And then Paranoia strikes He's on my trail he's always on my trial Always knows where to find me No matter how far I could drive I gotta hit the highway before paranoia strikes Nah na na na na na na na nah Nah na na na na na na na nah Nah na na na na na na na nah Around the corners, rounding every bend Always just a bit behind me No matter how fast I could fly The Paranoia finds me And then paranoia strikes "I'm only trying to help you Simply coming to your rescue I'm warning you when things ain't right To safeguard you from people who'll sabotage your life" Nah na na na na na na na nah Nah na na na na na na na nah Nah na na na na na na na nah I'm afraid of being bad Because I'll kill my reputation I'm afraid of being good Because of higher expectation I'm afraid of being close Because I don't wanna feel trapped And I'm afraid of being distanced 'Cause I'm just not used to that I'm afraid my motives might have been Towards becoming famous I'm afraid of being famous 'Cause to try and be is lameness I'm afraid of saying this And giving voice to all my failures I'm afraid of what you'll think Of these indulgent explanations "I'm only trying to help you Simply coming to your rescue I'm warning you when things ain't right To stop you saying something that'll sabotage your life" Here it comes again Here it comes again Here it comes again like a like a Like an ugly old friend Here it comes again Here it comes again Here it comes again like a like a Like an ugly old friend
