Uptight - Shara Nelson

I woke up on the wrong side of the floor

Made, made my way through the front door

Broke my engagement with myself

Perfect picture of bad health

Another notch scratched on my belt

The future just ain’t what it used to be…

I got a new start on a dead end road

Peaked, peaked out on reaching new lows

Owed, I paid off all my debts to myself

Perfect picture of bad health

Another notch scratched on my belt

The future’s in my living room…

Uptight, I’m a nag with a gun, yeah

All night, suicide’s last call, I’ve been

Uptight all night, I’m a son of a gun

Uptight, I’m a nag with a gun, yeah

All night, suicide’s last call, I’ve been

Uptight all night, I’m a son of a gun

Uptight, I’m a nag with a gun, yeah

All night, suicide’s last call, I’ve been

Uptight all night, I’m a son of a gun

Uptight, I’m a nag with a gun, yeah

All night, suicide’s last call, I’ve been

Uptight all night, I’m a son of a gun

Uptight, I’m a nag with a gun, yeah

All night, suicide’s last call, I’ve been

Uptight all night, I’m a son of a gun

Uptight, I’m a nag with a gun, yeah

All night, suicide’s last call, I’ve been

Uptight all night, I’m a son of a gun…
