美國少年歌手[洛克威爾]&歌壇天王[麥可傑克森]的合作──合成放克/合成流行/後迪斯可/R&B──[Somebodys Watching Me/有人在監視我]
Whos watching?
Tell me, whos watching?
Whos watching me?
Im just an average man with an average life
I work from nine to five, hey, hell, I pay the price
All I want is to be left alone in my average home
But why do I always feel like Im in the Twilight Zone and?
I always feel like somebodys watching me
And I have no privacy (oh, oh)
I always feel like somebodys watching me
Tell me is it just a dream?
When I come home at night
I bolt the door real tight
People call me on the phone, Im trying to avoid
But can the people on TV see me or am I just paranoid?
When Im in the shower, Im afraid to wash my hair
Cause I might open my eyes and find someone standing there
People say Im crazy, just a little touched
But maybe showers remind me of Psycho too much
Thats why
I always feel like somebodys watching me
And I have no privacy (oh, oh)
I always feel like somebodys watching me
Whos playing tricks on me?
I dont know anymore
Are the neighbors watching me? (Whos watching?)
Well, is the mailman watching me? (Tell me, whos watching?)
And I dont feel safe anymore, oh, what a mess
I wonder whos watching me now (who?), the IRS?
I always feel like somebodys watching me
And I have no privacy (oh, oh)
I always feel like somebodys watching me
Tell me is it just a dream?
I always feel like somebodys watching me
And I have no privacy (oh, oh)
I always feel like somebodys watching me
Whos playing tricks on me?
(Whos watching?)
I always feel like somebodys watching me (oh, oh)
I always feel like somebodys watching me
(Whos watching me?)
I always feel like somebodys watching me (oh, oh)
I always feel like somebodys watching me
(Whos watching me?)
I always feel like somebodys watching me
And I have no privacy (oh, oh)
I always feel like somebodys watching me
I cant enjoy my tea
(Whos watching me?)
I always feel like somebodys watching me
Can I have my privacy? (Oh, oh)
I always feel like somebodys watching me
Whos watching me?
(Whos watching me?)
I always feel like somebodys watching me
(Oh, oh)
I always feel like somebodys watching me
Stop playing tricks on me
(Whos watching me?)
I always feel like somebodys watching me
Why dont they leave me be? (Oh, oh)
I always feel like somebodys watching me
