Everybody got something hidden
In a darkness deep inside
Everybody gotta fatal flaw
Everybody got something to hide
Take a look into my eyes
See the fear and silent cries – phobia
Deep inside, take another look at it – phobia
Everybody got a phobia
Take another look, what you got – phobia
There are alleyways of your psyche
That have gotta be analyzed
Psychological penetration
Of the fear you cannot hide
There’s a key to a door to be opened
And I wanna take a look inside
And in the darkest shadow of your mind
What you gonna find?
Phobia

Out under a technicolor ray
It all disappears on a bright, sunny day
But even on a crowded street
Somebody you might meet
Might trigger a repeat of phobia
Strikes again, fear of fire and being buried alive
Dizzy heights, wire coat hangers
Things that crawl and go bump in the night – phobia
Fear of germs
Creepy crawlies that make you squirm – phobia
Images of long ago, memories that you hardly know
A minor childhood incident
Triggering something deep below
Spiders’ webs and black cats
Cockroaches and sewer rats
Full moons and witches hats
Creepy crawlies, vampire bats – phobia
I’m talking about phobia

Crowded rooms, too many faces
Suffocation, open spaces
Everybody gotta weird sensation
That they wanna keep trapped inside
Maybe it’s a sexual deviation
Hiding beneath a respectable guise
If you are of this persuasion
There is just one explanation – phobia
Started out a long time ago – phobia
When you were small you may have seen a sight
But you were too young to know – phobia
What you got – phobia
Everybody got phobia, what you got – phobia
Everybody got phobia, take another look, what you got?
Everybody got phobia, what you got?
Phobia
