Restless Elton John

[Verse 1]
It's a hot summer night in the blackboard jungle
Crime sits heavy on the city shoulder
Can't get no work, I can't get a job
I just sit and play my radio in the parking lot
Well, they're breaking down doors in foreign countries
Everybody thinks somebody's hiding something
There's talk on the street, and the nation is worried
But you can't talk back when you're dead
When you're dead and buried

[Chorus]
And everybody's restless
Everybody's scared
Everybody's looking for something that just ain't there
Everybody's restless

[Verse 2]
Everybody's scared, they think we're all in danger
Everyone's taking cover from someone else's anger
The walls have ears, Big Brother's watching
They tell us that we're poisoned from everything that we're touching

[Chorus]
And everybody's restless
Everybody's scared
Everybody's looking for something that just ain't there
Everybody's restless
Everybody's restless
