John Petrucci - Do You Want K'now About Me? Lyrics

Been uptight for all my life
Been uptight, I'm real uptight
My doctor told me I'm about to crack
I'm gonna drop dead from a heart attack

Been uptight for way too long
Been uptight, I'm real uptight
I had a girl but I wore her down
She told me "man, you're too uptight to be around"

Get me the hell out of here
I'm running out of control
I'm uptight, I'm not thinking clear
And I'm ready to blow

Tell me that I'm alright
Tell me I'm for real
I'm a fucking laboratory rat
And every breath I feel

Uptight
Uptight

La la la la la la la
been uptight, I'm real uptight
I had a job but I got the shaft
They fired me for being a decaf hypochondriac

Get me the hell out of here
I'm running out of control
I'm uptight, I'm not thinking clear
And I'm ready now to blow

Tell me that I'm alright
Tell me I'm for real
I'm a fucking laboratory rat
And every breath I feel

Uptight
Uptight

I've been uptight for all my life
None of you get it
None of you have a clue
I can't even leave my room
And when I wake up, I hide beneath my bed
I don't even eat, but I keep getting fatter
