[Verse 1] There’s a knock on the door But no one lives here I keep my curtains closed So they can see me clear My toaster’s humming jazz My toothbrush files reports Every light flickers like it’s in on the sport [Pre-Chorus] And I dance to forget But my feet know regret I move side to side But my thoughts won’t hide [Chorus] Paranoia’s got rhythm It taps in threes Wears a necktie and smiles While it steals your keys I try to unplug But the beat don’t sleep Even my reflection Knows what I keep [Verse 2] Elevator music starts to bite The thermostat’s asking if I’m alright Voices in fluorescent tubes Telling me to change my moods [Bridge – spoken, rhythmic] “Hey… who said that?” “You did. Probably.” “Do I still own my thoughts?” “Not digitally.” [Final Chorus] Paranoia’s got rhythm It grooves so well Dances in the cubicle Rings your bell I try to stand still But I shake in time To a song that’s playing Only in my mind
