I Was

Every time I turn around
A hideous form is standing there
The fucking cops are bad enough
Why should I see you everywhere?

You're alone and I wish I was
You're alone and I wish I was
You're alone and I wish I was

I'm not smiling
I understand you're hard up for a friend
But goddamn, there's such a thing as invitations
And that's just for your information

You're alone and I wish I was
You're alone and I wish I was
You're alone and I wish I was

I'm under no obligation to be friendly
You seem to think that your attitude will send me
(Just because my line's not busy
Doesn't mean I'm expecting a call from you)

You're alone and I wish I was
You're alone and I wish I was
You're alone and I wish I was
I was
I was
I was
