Get Off Of My Cloud by The Meteors Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1981

Well, I live in a hospital on the outskirts of town
They fill me full of sedatives but I just won't stay down
They keep my hands tied with a piece of rope cord
And the sign on the door says this is the terminal ward

I just say
Hey (hey) you get off of my cloud
Hey (hey) you get off of my cloud
Hey (hey) you get off of my cloud
Get off my cloud
There's no visitors allowed

We've got a record player when visiting is allowed
My brother smuggles records and The Panther Burns play it loud
I only get to hear them just once a year
And my brother smuggles letter telling my momma "Don't fear, I'm not mad"

I just say
Hey (hey) you get off of my cloud
Hey (hey) you get off of my cloud
Hey (hey) you get off of my cloud
Get off my cloud
There's no visitors allowed
They lock us up sleeping in the morning and in the night
We've got electroshock and straightjackets to make sure we don't fight
They bring the drugs around on a little tray
I'd rather be standing here than outside any day

I just say
Hey (hey) you get off of my cloud
Hey (hey) you get off of my cloud
Hey (hey) you get off of my cloud
Get off my cloud
There's no visitors allowed
