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, yeah, I'm all over the place
Clowns to the left of me; jokers to the right Here I am, stuck in the middle with you
Well, you started off with nothing
And you're proud that you're a self-made man (ooh ooh)
And your friends they all come crawling
Slap you on the back and say "Please. Please"
Tryin' to make some sense of it all
But I can see it makes no sense at all
Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor?
'Cause 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
Well, you started off with nothing
And you're proud that you're a self-made man (ooh ooh)
And your friends they all come crawling
Slap you on the back and say "Please. Please"
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
Stuck in the middle with you
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you
