Somebody’s Watching Me Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm just an average man with an average life
I work from nine to five, oh hell, I pay the price
All I want's to be left alone in my average home
But why do I always feel like I'm in the Twilight zone?

[Chorus]
I always feel like somebody's watching me
And I got no privacy (Ooh, oh)
I always feel like somebody's watching me
Tell me, is it just a dream?

[Verse 2]
When I come home at night
I bolt the door real tight
People call me on the phone, I'm trying to avoid
Can the people on TV see me or am I just paranoid?
When I'm in the shower, I'm afraid to wash my hair
'Cause I might open up my eyes and find someone standing there
People say I'm crazy, just a little touch
But maybe showers remind me of Psycho too much
That's why

[Chorus]
I always feel like somebody's watching me
And I got no privacy (Ooh, oh)
I always feel like somebody's watching me
Who's playing tricks on me?
[Bridge]
Who’s watching me?
Are the neighbors watching me?
Is the mailman watching me?
And I don't feel safe anymore, oh, what a mess
I wonder who's watching me now (Who?), the IRS?

[Chorus]
I always feel like somebody's watching me
And I got no privacy (Ooh, oh)
I always feel like somebody's watching me
Tell me, is it just a dream? (Ooh, oh)

[Chorus]
I always feel like somebody's watching me
And I got no privacy (Ooh, oh)
I always feel like somebody's watching me
Tell me it can't be

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
