Singing… ooooooooooooooh owoooooo owoooo owo owooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooo owo owoooooo wwwowwwo wowowoww woooooooowoooowooooooooooooow I don’t wanna be lonely For the rest of my days on the earth. Leading me to better prepare For the day that something really special might come. Though I can’t satisfy all the needs she has And so she starts to wander… Can you blame her? singing… oooooooh oh. Get your hands off the girl, Can’t you see that she belongs to me? And I don’t appreciate this excess company. And I just pass through… singing… ooooooh oh. 'Cause I could not have it better, But I just can’t get no play From the girls, all around As they search the night for someone to hold onto. Hungry nights, once again Now it’s getting unbelievable. All I have to do is swing and I’m a hero, but I’m a zero. What’s the deal with my brain? Why am I so obviously insane? In a perfect situation I let love down the drain.
