I need someone a person to talk to

someone who'd care to love

could it be you could it be you

situation gets rough then I start to panic

it's not enough it's just a habit

hey kid your sick well darling this is it

you can all just kiss off into the air

behind my back I can see them stare

they'll hurt me bad but I won't mind

they'll hurt me bad they do it all the time

yeah yeah they do it all the time

I hope you know this will go down

on your permanent record

oh yeah well don't get so distressed

did I happen to mention that I'm impressed

I take one one one cause you left me and

two two two for my family and

3 3 3 for my heartache and

4 4 4 for my headaches and

5 5 5 for my lonely and

6 6 6 for my sorrow and

7 7 for no tomorrow and

8 8 I forget what 8 was for and

9 9 9 for a lost god and

10 10 10 10 for everything

everything everything everything
