[Verse 1]
I was walking down the street when I heard CNN
Through the window of a bar and I thought here we go again
So I stood there with the crowd, I watched the world go by
While everyone around me kept on glancing at the sky
Made me nervous

[Verse 2]
So I went back to my house and got down on my knees
It was quiet as a mouse when he spies a chunk of cheese
I said Lord won't you help me 'cause I cannot see the light
Then I thought about the bomb and I closed my curtains tight
Made me nervous

[Verse 3]
It's a complicated world and it's a little too much
I'm a complicatеd girl but I've lost my touch
And I don't know what to do, I don't know where to turn
I walk around in circlеs and I wish I was a germ

[Verse 4]
'Cause if I was a germ, I would never be scared
I could hide in someone's finger or a little piece of hair
I could give 'em all the clap, I could kill 'em in their sleep
Nobody'd fight back, they wouldn't know it was me
They make me nervous
[Verse 5]
I'm nervous for the President and for the FBI
I'm nervous for the government and I don't wanna fly
I'm nervous about the Arabs when I look up at the sky
And I think I'm being hijacked if you look me in the eye
I'm really nervous

[Verse 6]
I don't wanna revolution and I don't wanna fight a war
I don't wanna think about it or be nervous any more
So I'm going back to bed with a dirty magazine
And I'm hoping when I wake up it'll turn out to be a dream

[Verse 7]
So if you're feeling nervous you can come on to my place
We can drink a glass of wine and pretend we're on a date
We can sing Kumbaya by the light of my TV
We can move to Dakota, it's all the same to me

[Verse 8]
It'll be all right, it'll be okay
We will all survive and face another day
But for tonight I'll tell you my dears
That I'm just a little nervous and I'm very glad you're here
