ANXIETY (GET NERVOUS)
(Neil Geraldo / Billy Steinberg)
Pat Benatar - 1982


(Get Nervous...Get Nervous
Get Nervous...Get Nervous
Get Nervous...Get Nervous
Get Nervous...Get Nervous
Get Nervous...Get Nervous)

I feel a little shaky, 
I can't control my nerves
I know you think I'm freakin',
But can't you feel the curves

I swear to you this feeling, 
Scares me half to death 
It gathers in my throat 
And it gathers up my breath

Anxiety..... Got me on the run
Anxiety..... Yeah, I just need someone
Anxiety..... Can't get nothin' done
Anxiety..... Spoils all the fun

I'm picking up the telephone, 
There's no one I can call 
I need somebody bad, 
Can't find no sleep at all

I wish I could relax, 
I just can't stop my mind
I wish I could collapse 
But my body's not that kind

Anxiety..... Got me on the run
Anxiety..... Yeah, I just need someone
Anxiety..... Can't get nothin' done
Anxiety..... Spoils all the fun

Can't you hear my heartbeat, 
Hear the way it sounds?
Can't you hear my heartbeat, 
Y'hear the way it pounds?
Just give me somethin' to slow it down, Yeah

Sometimes in the city, 
Sometimes in my car
I pound on the windows 
Like a bee inside a jar

Anxiety..... Got me on the run
Anxiety..... Yeah, I just need someone
Anxiety..... Can't get nothin' done
Anxiety..... Spoils all the fun
Anxiety..... Got me on the run
Anxiety..... Yeah, I just need someone
Anxiety..... Can't get nothin' done
Anxiety..... Spoils all the fun
