Paranoia Blues I got some so-called friends They'll smile right to my face But, when my back is turned They'd like to stick it to me Yes they would Oh no no, oh no no There's only one thing I need to know Whose side are you on I fly into J.F.K. My heart goes boom boom boom I know that customs man He's going to take me To that little room Oh no no. Oh no, no There's only one thing I need to know Whose side are you on Whose side are you on? I got the paranoia blues Fnom knockin' around in New York City Where they roll you for a nickel And they stick you for the extra dime Anyway you choose You're bound to lose in New York City Oh, I just got out in the nick of time Well, I just got out in the nick of time Once I was down in Chinatown I was eating some Lin's Chow Fon I happened to turn around And when I looked I see My Chow Fon's gone Oh no, no, Oh no, no There's only one thing I need to know Whose side are you on, whose side are you on? There's only one thing I need to know Whose side, whose side, whose side?

La primera vez que me lo hicieron me sentí fatal...". Parece que Paul es un poco paranoico con la violencia callejera y teme, como muchos otros, ser víctima de ella. Discografía - Pagina Principal
