(Warren Zevon)
Well, I lay my head on the railroad track
Waitin' on the "double e"
But the train don't run through here no more
Poor, poor pitiful me!
Chorus
Poor, poor pitiful me!
Poor, poor pitiful me!
Oh, these boys won't let me be
Lord have mercy on me!
Woe, woe is me!
Well, I met a man out in Hollywood
And I ain't namin' names
But he really worked me over good
Just like Jesse James
Yes, he really worked me over good
He was a credit to his gender
He put me through some changes
Lord, sorta like a waring blender<

(Mark Barkan / Vic Millrose)
You belong
To somebody else and not to me
Right or wrong
That's not the way that it's gonna be
I want you so much inside
I'm throwin' away all my conscience and pride, and
I'll try anything to get you
I'll do anything I can
I'll try anything to get you
I'll cheat and I'll lie
And I'll try 'til I die
'Til I make you my man
Gonna make you my man
I've been burned
Whenever I've followed all the rules
So I've learned
That playing it fair is just for fools
I'm fighting and win or lose
I'm not minding

1st verse
Lock my door
close my blinds
I wanna be myself
What's that thing
you put in your nose?
Can I have some?
I see you do this everyday
I hope you don't
blow yourself away
Are you feeling real good?
Prechorus
Wired (wired)
Wired (wired)
2nd verse
Oh the room is getting dark
Oh I hope my heart don't stop
Do you really give a damn?
Do you even understand?
(understand me)
3rd verse
Hour glass is taining thin
where have you been?
Do you know it makes you
feel real good

she won't speak to me
won't speak
and it's all my own fault
baby i'm afraid to let you know
they stole the show and towed the rowboat
though slow
we're on the go like rabbits in the snow
baby i'm a lonely kind of man
like a rapper with a forty in his hand
i can't stand
when you talk about that other man
every day i watch the tv shows
it's getting so i know the shows hosts
i don't boast
maybe i should try and make the most
i'm always biting more than i can chew
to lose the blues i choose to flew the coop
who knew?
is it news
