Jet Lagged
Smokie
Letra

Álbum: Solid Ground ( 1981)

verse 1

Jet lagged, whipped out 

Photographed, want to shout 

Criticised, a model life 

See me shaped before your eyes 

Look at me mamma 

Can you sense the situation 

It s getting hard to work it out  

All I need is a little moderation. 

verse 2

Jet legged, let it out 

Don t know what s it all about 

Patronized, adolized 

It s getting harder to improvise 

Look at me mamma 

Can you sense the situation 

Sitting on a roundaboud 

And searching for a piece of inspiration. 

Well sitting in the backroom 

Waiting for a doll to come 

Hmm, if there s a population waiting 

I see you in the county hall 

But I ain t even got the time  

To telephone a friend of mine 

For usefull information 

And help my situation 

I get the feeling that they re telling me a lie. 

verse 3

Jet lagged, whipped out 

Photographed, want to shout 

Criticised, a model life 

See me shaped before your eyes 

Look at me mamma 

Can you sense the situation 

It s getting hard to work it out  

All I need is a little moderation. 

BRIDGE 

Look at me mamma, look at me mamma 

Look at me mamma, look at me mamma 

Look at me mamma, look at me mamma 

Look at me mamma, look at me mamma 

Sneaking out the backdoor 

Wandering which way to go 

Standing on the side line 

Just waiting for a man to show 

But I ain t even got the time  

To telephone a friend of mine 

For usefull information 

And help my situation 

I get the feeling that they re telling me a lie. 

verse 4

Jet lagged, whipped out 

Photographed, want to shout 

Criticised, a model life 

See me shaped before your eyes 

Look at me mamma 

Can you sense the situation 

It s getting hard to work it out  

All I need is a little moderation. 

VERSE 5 (fading) 

Jet lagged, whipped out 

Photographed, want to shout 

It s getting harder to work it out 

All I need is a little moderation.
