Where am I gonna go?
What am I gonna do? There's no one to guide me Now that I'm on my own I make my own decisions There's no one behind me I do my own talking Do my own walking Nobody on which to rely Do my own lying Do my own trying You never let your apron strings untie If I said I'm sorry that you've gone I'd be lying I feel more sorry for myself I'm crying I'm crying Wish you'd have let me think And do for myself Knowing one day you'd leave me Knowing one day you'd die The least you could have done Is make sure that I could live easy That I could I do my own talking Do my own walking Had a code that I could live by Do my own lying Do my own trying Make sure that I could get by If I said I'm sorry that you've gone I'd be lying I feel more sorry for myself I'm crying I'm crying If I said I'm sorry that you've gone I'd be lying I feel more sorry for myself I'm crying I'm crying |

When I'm feeling blue
I stick a pin in the picture of you Beside my bed and I feel better When I'm feeling sad I remember that you were the worst lay I ever had And I feel better Don't you try to tell me that I'm to blame You're the one that ought to feel ashamed You can't keep an animal that ain't been tamed You didn't even know the fella's name When I'm feeling down I just throw the clothes that you left here around And I feel better When I'm feeling great It's only because I'm consumed with hate For you and I feel better Don't you try to tell me that I'm to blame When you're the one that ought to feel ashamed You can't keep an animal that ain't been tamed You didn't even know the fella's name When I'm in the mood I shout all the swear words that you thought were rude And I feel better When I feel alone I make obscene remarks on the telephone To you and I feel better Don't you try to tell me that I'm to blame When you're the one that ought to feel ashamed You can't keep an animal that ain't been tamed You didn't even know the fella's name When I'm feeling blue I stick a pin in the picture of you Beside my bed and I feel better When I'm feeling sad I remember that you were the worst lay I ever had And I feel better Don't you try to tell me that I'm to blame When you're the one that ought to feel ashamed You can't keep an animal that ain't been tamed You didn't even know the fella's name |

What'cha gonna do when your wife finds another
Takes the kids and the car and half of the house? What'cha gonna do, move in with your mother And spend your time looking to find a new spouse? Thinking it over It ain't worth the worry Starting over to make a new life Thinking it over I decided not to bother I decided to take my own life I'm on the ledge outside my window The ground is ten stories below As I look down, the crowd look up Wondering whether I'll jump or not What'cha gonna do, disappoint all those people Or make a splash in the headlines next day? What'cha gonna do, waste the time of those policemen Or let your audience have their own way? Thinking it over I decided not to bother I decided to take my own life Thinking it over It ain't worth the worry I decided to take my own life What'cha gonna do, disappoint all those people Or make a splash in the headlines next day? What'cha gonna do, waste the time of those policemen Or let your audience have their own way? Thinking it over I decided not to bother I decided to save my own life Thinking it over I decided not to bother It's too high price to pay for an unfaithful wife |

The whole world is full of people living lives of worry
What's the hurry, who cares? The whole world is full of people wasting time just thinking Thinking that they're sinking, who cares? Don't care was made to care Don't care was tried Don't care was hung by his worries 'til he nearly died. Some people think I'm crazy Others just think I'm lazy But I know that I'm stronger People say that I neglect my responsibilities But I don't mind cause I'll live longer. Everybody says they pay their bills the day they're sent I don't even pay my rent, who cares? Everybody says they need their breakfast every morning I'm satisfied with yawning, who cares? Don't care was made to care Don't care was tried Don't care was hung by his worries 'til he nearly died. Some people think I'm crazy Others just think I'm lazy But I know that I'm stronger People say that I neglect my responsibilities But I don't mind cause I'll live longer.

I wonder what would happen if my dog could talk
Would he look me in the eye and say, "Take me for a walk"? When I gave him his dinner, would he shake his head And say, "Take it away, I want caviar instead"? Thank you Mother Nature For the way you got things planned Don't ever change a thing, I'm happy as I am Imagine living in a place where the sea was red And your legs were in the position now occupied by your head Imagine living in a place where black was white And white was black, even the night I wonder what would happen if my fish could fly Would it leap from its tank and hit the cat in the eye? Out through the window and into the sky I'm so glad that sharks can't fly Thank you Mother Nature For the way you got things planned Don't ever change a thing, I'm happy as I am Imagine living in a place where the sea was red And your legs were in the position now occupied by your head Imagine living in a place where black was white And white was black, even the night I wonder what would happen if the moon fell down Would it leave a white circle where they painted around? I wonder what would happen if the sun went out |

I'm waiting at the end of your garden
Waiting for you to turn on the light I don't care if your husband's there I'm hidden by the night I can't afford to buy the kind of dirty books That show naked ladies with big chests I can't afford to pay a woman to keep me warm at night But that don't mean that I can't show no interest There's no cause for alarm I don't mean no harm I'm just looking I'm just hoping for a glimpse Of something I've never had and never will I'm just window shopping That's why I'm waiting at the end of your garden Waiting for you to turn on the light I don't care if your husband's there I'm hidden by the night I can't afford to buy the kind of books That show naked ladies with big chests I can't afford to buy a woman to keep me warm at night But that don't mean that I can't show no interest There's no cause for alarm I don't mean no harm I'm just looking I'm just hoping for a glimpse Of something I've never had and never will I'm just window shopping That's why I'm waiting at the end of your garden Waiting for you to turn on the light Please don't draw the curtains Or I won't sleep tonight I can't afford to buy the kind of dirty books That show naked ladies with big chests I can't afford to buy a woman to keep we warm at night But that don't mean that I can't show no interest I can't afford to buy the kind of dirty books That show naked ladies with big chests I can't afford to buy a woman to keep we warm at night But that don't mean that I can't show no interest |

I found out this morning
The uncle that I was mourning was Living off the insurance in South America I found out this morning Just as the day was dawning when I Saw his suntanned photograph in the paper I found out this morning That I'd been led up the path again Led up the path again I found out tonight You're not the woman I want You're not the woman I was looking for or thought I'd found I found out tonight You're married with three little kids and a Great big husband who weight lifts I found out tonight That I'd been led up the path again Led up the path again She must have seen me coming I must have looked as though I was running Everybody takes me for a fool She must have laughed until she cried She must have laughed until she died Everybody takes me for a fool It's so uncool I'll find out tomorrow That I was the cause of sorrow That my mother and father had to get married the day after I was born I'll find out tomorrow That just like the mark of Zorro that I have a name that suits my personality I'll find out tomorrow That I've been led up the path again Led up the path again I'll find out tomorrow That I've been led up the path again Led up the path again Led up the path again |
