[Verse 1]
There is an ill wind blowin'
With no let up in sight
Evil ill wind blowin'
And I been up all night
Simple solemn slumber
Seems to slip away
Lord help me go under
I've been up all day
[Chorus]
Something's going on tonight
What am I missing?
Something's going on tonight
What am I missing? Ooh
[Verse 2]
I've been a victim of these white lies
Since I was seventeen
You could say I've been everywhere
But you can't say what I've seen
And lookin' back on my life
Deep though it has been
I'll end up like a jack knife
Standing in the wind
[Chorus]
Something's going on tonight
What am I missing?
Something's going on tonight
What am I missing?
What am I missing
And lookin' back on my life
Deep though it has been
I'll end up like a jack knife
Standing in the wind
Something's going on tonight
Something's going on tonight
There's an ill wind goin'
Can't you feel it blowin'
