Someone’s Looking at You Songtext
von The Boomtown Rats

On a night like this I deserve to get kissed at least once or twice
You come over to my place, you′re screaming blue murder
Needing someplace to hide
Hey well, I wish you'd keep quiet
Imaginations run riot
In these paper-thin walls
And when the place comes ablaze
With a thousand dropped names
I don′t know who to call

I got a friend over there in the government block
And he knows the situation and he's taking stock
I think I'll call him up now
Gonna put him on the spot, tonight

They saw me there in the square when I was shooting my mouth off
′Bout saving some fish
Now could that be construed as some radical′s views or some liberal's wish


Uh-huh, it′s so hot outside and the air is so sweet
And when the pressure drop is heavy I don't wanna hear you speak
You know most killing is committed at 90 degrees
When it′s too hot to breathe
And it's too hot to think

There′s always someone looking at you
S-s-s-someone's lookin' at you
They′re always someone looking at you
Tonight, they′re looking at you tonight

And I wish you'd stop whispering
Don′t flatter yourself, nobody's listening
But it makes me nervous, those things you say
You may as well
Shout it from the roof
Scream it from your lungs
And spit it from you mouth
Hey it could fall on deaf ears to indulge in your fears

There′s a spy in the sky
There's a noise on the wire
There′s a tap on the line
For every paranoid desire

There's always someone looking at you
S-s-s-someone's lookin′ at you
They′re always someone looking at you


They're always lookin′ at you
They're always lookin′ at you
They're always lookin′ at you
They're always lookin' at you
They′re always lookin′ at you
They're always lookin′ at you
They're always...
On a night like this I deserve to get kissed at least once or twice
