Radio Paradise (mobile)

Well I don't know why I came here tonight.
I've got the feeling that something ain't right.
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair,
and I'm wondering how I'll get down the stairs.

Clowns to the left of me!
Jokers to the right!
Here I am stuck in the middle with you.

Yes I'm stuck in the middle with you,
and I'm wondering what it is I should do.
It's so hard to keep this smile from my face.
Losing control and running all over the place.

Clowns to the left of me!
Jokers to the right!
Here I am stuck in the middle with you.

When you started off with nothing
and you're proud that your a self-made man.
ooooo-ooo-oooh
and your friends they all come crawling,
slap you on the back and say
Please . . .
Please . . .

Trying to make some sense of it all
but I see it makes no sense at all.
Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor?
I don't think that I can take anymore.

Clowns to the left of me!
Jokers to the right!
Here I am stuck in the middle with you.

When you started off with nothing
and you're proud that your a self-made man.
ooooo-ooo-oooh

slap you on the back and say

Yes I'm stuck in the middle with you . . .
Yes I'm stuck in the middle with you . . .

Yes I'm stuck in the middle with you . . .

laozilover Jan 21, 2013 - 17:08	well, I only first saw a reservoir Dogs about a month ago so having seen it now I can't not think of it when I hear this song especially with things uhaving listen to the Steven Wright intro [ Reply ]
laozilover Jan 21, 2013 - 17:07	okay, I only just recently saw Reservoir Dogs, but having seen it I am going to always think of it when I hear this song particularly because of the Steven Wright intro. [ Reply ]

BCarn Oct 19, 2012 - 15:35	I remember this from my youth way before QT used it. Reservoir Dogs was just a movie. The song was used as a period ref obviously so it needn't be associated with the gruesome scene from a classic Tarantino flick. [ Reply ]

The nasal voice does grate, but I've got nothing against Gerry Rafferty in his other work, and often quite like it. The lyrics, maybe, though other songs are as, or more, twee and pretentious. Maybe it was just my time of the month and the mood's stayed with me ever since. The real clincher, though, was the song's use in Tarantino's appalling Reservoir Dogs, which has indelibly associated it with bloody torture. 1's too good for it C'mon Fred. Off the rag and on the dance floor! razor and all! :-) [ Reply ]
AmandaMaria Nov 16, 2011 - 13:54	About 10 years ago, Hanes used this song for advertising their underwear... the ad showed a variety of ladies thongs hanging on a clothesline I will forever correlate this song with that ad [ Reply ]

Nerubo Nov 16, 2011 - 13:51	This song has just enough cowbell. It's the Goldilocks of cowbell. You might even say its Stuck in the Middle in terms of its cowbell usage. What? I'm sick of reading about that movie. It's been out for a while. Gotta move those comments down the page. [ Reply ]

I still see the two steps forward, once step back dance... [ Reply ]

jgruesen Sep 14, 2011 - 11:18	Thought it was a lame song the first time I heard, and my opinion hasn't changed with time. [ Reply ]
