Oingo Boingo — Something Isnt Right

[Verse 1] Once in a lifetime, something happens No one understands Turns the whole world inside out Turns water into grains of sand Who in the world would ever guess That something wasn't right? Who can explain when the sun comes up In the middle of a winter night? [Chorus 1] I'm burnin' up now, baby I'm burnin' up now, baby, baby, please [Verse 2] Who would've guessed that When I first set eyes upon your face History would be rearranged And nothing would ever be the same? Who would believe that in my heart Is a piece of burning coal Slowly turning from a fire to a Raging blaze without control? [Chorus 2] I'm burnin' up now, baby I'm burnin' up now, baby I've seen so much it scares me I can't cool off 'cause something isn't right [Verse 3] What do you think would happen If I sat outside your door? Howled like a dog and played guitar And begged you, "Baby, baby, please"? How do you think your folks would feel If I broke into your house? Snuck in your room while you were asleep And prayed to you down on my knees? [Chorus 2] I'm burnin' up now, baby I'm burnin' up now, baby I've seen so much it scares me I can't cool off 'cause something isn't right [Breakdown / Outro] Who in the world would ever guess That somewhere in the middle of our cozy nest There were dark things lurking in the back of your mind? Just open the window and look with your eyes Where in the Good Book does it say That destiny cannot be changed? Who in the world would ever know If you walked out the door and never came home That something is not right?
