Just Because - Joe Jackson

Can’t drink the water

Can’t breathe the air

Can’t hide down in the sewer

'Cause there’s crocodiles down there

My hovel needs a barricade

My pants need an alarm

Need some non-alcoholic whiskey

And some Giuliani charm

Just because you’re paranoid

Don’t mean they’re not out to get ya Don’t look at me on the subway

And I won’t look at you

Don’t touch me with your greasy gloves

And syphilitic flu

Brain cancer causes cell phones

Brain damage causes drugs

I’m staying off the streets 'cause

Gangwar causes thugs

Just because you’re paranoid

Don’t mean they’re not out to get ya
