Green Eyed Monster
[Verse 1]
Who's that creeping out of my back door?
Don't say he's collecting for the poor
Don't you tell me you're not having fun
The green-eyed monster's got me on the run

[Verse 2]
Phones keep ringing but there's no one there
You never told me why you changed your hair
Someone else's lotion on my side of the mattress
Green-eyed monster's got me by the Niagara's

[Chorus]
Don't think I'm mad (I want what you got)
It's paranoia
I'm sad you're glad (I want what you got)
I'm hungry for your love
Say the word (You got what I need)
Give me fever
Keep those goodies for me

[Verse 3]
Midnight shopping is a funny thing
But I'm not laughing, you don't wear your ring
You spend a fortune but your cupboard's bare
Green-eyed monster's got his home in there
[Verse 4]
Somethings cooking at the laundromat
Dirty washing, i'm not having that
Fifteen visits and my threads are bare
The green-eyed monster leaves me in despair

[Chorus]
Don't think I'm mad (I want what you got)
It's paranoia
I'm sad you're glad (I want what you got)
I'm hungry for your love
Say the word (You got what I need)
Give me fever
Keep that something for me

[Bridge]
What the hell is happening here?
The more I get to know
I find out how much I don't know
Who can I turn to now
When everything I touch
And everything I see
Seems to crumble into dust
You put the evil eye on me

[Verse 5]
Green-eyed monster's driving me insane
And jealous lovers play a deadly game
My fire is burning but you're cold as ice
The green-eyed monster throws a loaded dice
[Verse 1]
Who's that creeping out of my back door?
Don't say he's collecting for the poor
And don't you tell me you're not having fun
The green-eyed monster's got me on the run

[Outro]
The green-eyed monster's got me on the run
The green-eyed monster's got me on the run
