The breath of the morning
I keep forgetting
The smell of the warm summer airI live in a town
Where you can't smell a thing
You watch your feet
For cracks in the pavementUp above
Aliens hover
Making home movies
For the folks back homeOf all these weird creatures
Who lock up their spirits
Drill holes in themselves
And live for their secretsThey're all
Uptight
Uptight
Uptight
Uptight
Uptight
UptightOhI wish that they'd swoop down in a country lane
Late at night when I'm driving
Take me on board their beautiful ship
Show me the world as I'd love to see itI'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
AlrightI'm just
Uptight
Uptight
Uptight
Uptight
Uptight
Uptight
Uptight
Uptight
Uptight
