The Lyrics
Dedicated to all those who've watched one too many episodes of America's Most Wanted...
I walk along the city streets, I'm feeling stalked, what's wrong with me?
And every turn I take, I'm thinking of what I saw on TV
Is that the guy, who shot that girl?
Oh, there are always suspects walking behind me
Always suspects wanting to find me
I wanna call, no I should not delay, the hotline airs each night
'Cause I can't help but think of how that bellhop fills my heart with fright
He's wanted all around the world
Yes, there are always suspects walking behind me
Always suspects wanting to find me
Honk my horn--a mugger
Is out there wanderin' free
And now he's got his eyes on me
If you should find I miss our date for dinner--I'm not anywhere
Just go dig up the backyard of my mailman, I'll prob'ly be there
Along with forty other girls
Yes, there are always suspects walking behind me
Always suspects wanting to find me
I should duck and cover
You see, they're all after me
I saw their faces on TV
Yes, there are always suspects walking behind me
Always suspects wanting to find me
Wanting to rob, maim, beat, and blind me
Always suspects walking behind me!!
And every turn I take, I'm thinking of what I saw on TV
Is that the guy, who shot that girl?
Oh, there are always suspects walking behind me
Always suspects wanting to find me
I wanna call, no I should not delay, the hotline airs each night
'Cause I can't help but think of how that bellhop fills my heart with fright
He's wanted all around the world
Yes, there are always suspects walking behind me
Always suspects wanting to find me
Honk my horn--a mugger
Is out there wanderin' free
And now he's got his eyes on me
If you should find I miss our date for dinner--I'm not anywhere
Just go dig up the backyard of my mailman, I'll prob'ly be there
Along with forty other girls
Yes, there are always suspects walking behind me
Always suspects wanting to find me
I should duck and cover
You see, they're all after me
I saw their faces on TV
Yes, there are always suspects walking behind me
Always suspects wanting to find me
Wanting to rob, maim, beat, and blind me
Always suspects walking behind me!!

LOL! Very funny stuff! I love the mailman's backyard bit.
A fine, fives paranoiady.
(Fom the crawl space beneath John Wayne Gacy's house). Just becuase you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you. Great stuff. What Leo said about the mailman...very funny. High 5's
okay...okay...i'll back off...i coulda sworn i was being discreet...5s
It's the black helicopters that you've REALLY got to watch out for. 5's
Perfect parody paranoia.
555, I never worry about peopl....what was that sound?....watching me. :)
Well aren't you the cleverest girl around! I love the original, and I LOVE the wordplay here. I am soooo your biggest fan! (Yeah...that was me "stalking" behind you earlier...)
Great OS, Great parody!! 555
Leo...thanks, buddy...this one came to me just as I was getting ready for bed last night...peeping out at my hooligan neighbors who I KNOW are up to no good...=)
John B...thanks!! Nice word!
Dee...ever since you listed me in that comment on Kristof's parody, I'm terrified of the day that I'm going to fail to live up to your expectations. THANK HEAVENS that this isn't that day...=) Thanks!
alvin...yeah...I don't know many people who'd call sleeping under my bed discreet...but...whatever you say...
Johnny D...no, I'm always hoping those black helicopters are the authorities, coming to take my pursuer away...=)
Rex...thanks! Nice alliteration, by the way...=)
Red Ant...hee! Thanks!
Ash...you know it's not stalking when I'm paying you to follow me in order to act as my ass kickin' bodyguard...=)
Rick C...great comment! Thanks!

You have the right to remain hilarious.
Hee...thanks, Michael!!
Uh, wait, I think I need to inspect this parody...okay...I'll give it 5s.

Thanks a ton, Serafina!
Missed this one a month ago...it's great! 5,5,5!
By the way, I noticed somebody gave this a triple 1 vote?? What the &$%@ is up with that?

I don't know, Blue Ant, but I don't think it really matters. 5-5-5
Blue Ant...the only way to know you're REALLY good around here is if someone is so bitterly jealous of your talent that they give you 1s...; ) Thanks!
joe...thanks!!
joe...thanks!!
v funny you dont live round here do you ? lol top marks 555
(ABC) Still great the second time around.
(ABC3) Cute..
(ABC) All right everybody, now just look over here at The Neuralizer, that's it, very good, keep looking, keep looking .... FLASH.
A little paranoid aren't we Arwen?
(ABC3) See above, and while our taste in music usually differ quite a bit, I have to say I too like TOS. Even though I haven't heard it in a while, it came right back to me after reading this. Nice work!
(ABC3) What? I missed this one for some reason. Fantastic Arwen, and I totally agree about mailmen. When I found out Jeff Dahmer was delivering my mail, I was gone in a shot - 555
ABC3-Alright
ABC3A - Sorry, I'm a bit disappointed with this, high standards and all. I think it could work better as "Always some creep trailing/staring behind me." but it's your song, your choice.
