You're a lonely alcoholic
With a tendency to whine
Well you speak it and you drink it
And bore us all the time

Say you drink out of your sorrow
For you've got no one to love
But tell me who could cuddle up
To a lonely alcoholic

You're a stressed out single mother
Who has clearly been harassed
Well you can't predict the future
For you can't erase the past
Cause your baby isn't going anywhere
But up so join the line and get the dole
For the stressed out single mothers

I'm a mediocre writer
Who sings all the time
Writing songs about misfortunes 
And other people's crimes
Well they say that I am
Doing my duty to the world
Oh you could say that that is onerous,
I'm just craving to be heard

Goooo don't leave me alone

Well who is there to listen
To the problems of our lives
You've got kids who just don't eat enough
And men with many wives
If we're altogether screaming
Why can't we make a sound
'cause the dirt on which we're stepping
Is the one in which we will be found

ooooo baby don't leave me alone

Well who is there to listen 
To the problems of our lives
You've got kids who just don't eat enough
And men with many wives
If we're altogether screaming
Why can't we make a sound
'cause the dirt on which we're stepping
Is the one in which we will be found

Ooooo baby don't leave me alone
