who''s that creeping out of my back door

don''t say he''s collecting for the poor

don''t you tell me you''re not having fun

the green eyed monster''s got me on the run



phones keep ringing but there''s no one there

you never told me why you changed your hair

someone else''s lotion on my side of the mattress

green eyed monster''s got me by the niagra''s



don''t think i''m mad, it''s paranoia

(i want what you got)

i''m sad, you''re glad

(i want what you got)

i''m hungry for your love

say the word, give me fever

(you got what i need)

keep those goodies for me



midnight shopping is a funny thing

but i''m not laughing, you don''t wear your ring

you spend a fortune but your cupboard''s bare

the green eyed monster''s got his home in there



somethings cooking at the laundromat

dirty washing, i''m not having that

fifteen visits and my threads are bare

the green eyed monster leaves me in despair



don''t think i''m mad, it''s paranoia

(i want what you got)

i''m sad, you''re glad

(i want what you got)

hungry for your love

you say, the word, give me fever

(you got what i need)

keep that something for me



what the hell is happening here

the more i get to know

i find out how much i don''t know

who can i turn to now

when everything i touch

and everything i see

seems to crumble into dust

you put the evil eye on me



green eyed monster''s driving me insane

and jealous lovers play a deadly game

my fire is burning but you''re as cold as ice

the green eyed monster throws a loaded dice



who''s that creeping out of my back door

don''t say he''s collecting for the poor

don''t you tell me you''re not having fun

the green eyed monster''s got me on the run

the green eyed monster''s got me on the run

the green eyed monster''s got me on the run
