Paranoid - The Jonas Brothers

veebox welcomes the Jonas Brothers wholeheartedly, because we just know that with more videos like this one, they’ll keep us going for years to come. We’ll just start off by cautioning that if the JoBros are gonna try to get away with wearing such flamboyant clothes that and pretend to be part of the Disney machine’s new abstinence scam, they really shouldn’t have so much gay innuendo in their videos (we are all thinking it, we’re just saying it). For example, less than 20 seconds in, the one brother turns into a hot blonde. Then there’s the ugly brother who shortly thereafter, is seen chilling in a sausage-fest of a room with clones of himself. Then the other one climbs into a wrestling ring to get manhandled by a couple of masked musclemen. It’s around this time in the video when you might notice that the brothers aren’t even very good singers to begin with. The angsty pubescent screeching sounds more like a dying animal than a new hit single. Then it turns out that the whole plot of the video was really a hallucination. Or was it (OMG!)? Who cares? Just watch the ugly brother’s run at the end of the video. Haha!

Paranoid Lyrics:

I make the most of all the stress
I try to live without regrets
But I’m about to break a sweat
I’m freakin’ out

It’s like a poison in my brain
It’s like a fog that blurs the scene
It’s like a vine you can’t untangle
I’m freakin’ out

Everytime I turn around
Something don’t feel right
I might be paranoid
I’m avoiding the lines cause they just might split
Can someone stop the noise?
I don’t know what it is,
But it just don’t fit
I’m paranoid

Yeah

I take the necessary steps
To get some air into my chest
I’m taking all the doctors meds
I’m still freaking out

That’s why my ex is still my ex
I never trust a word she says
I’m runnin’ all the background checks
And she’s freaking out

Everytime I turn around, something’s just not right
Might be paranoid
I’m avoiding the lines cause they just might split
Can someone stop the noise?
I don’t know what it is
But it just don’t fit
Consider me destroyed
I don’t know how to act cause I lost my head
I must be paranoid
I never thought it would come to this
I’m paranoid

Stuck in the room
We’re staring faces
Yeah
I’m caught in a nightmare
I can’t wake up
If you hear my cry, running threw her streets
I’m about to freak
Come and rescue me

She might be paranoid
Yeah
I’m avoiding the lines cause they just might split
Can someone stop the noise?
I don’t know what it is
But it just don’t fit
Consider me destroyed
I don’t know how to act
‘Cause I lost my head
I must be paranoid
I never thought it would come to this
I’m paranoid
