Mr. Pitiful
Call me Mr. Pitiful
Baby, that's my name now, oh
Call me Mr. Pitiful, that's how I got my fame
But people just don't understand that
What makes a man feel so blue
Ooh, they call me Mr. Pitiful 'cause I lost someone just like you, yeah
They call me Mr. Pitiful
This, everybody know now
They call me Mr. Pitiful most every place I go
But nobody seems to understand now
How can a man sing such a sad song, now
Ooh, when he lost everything, when he lost everything that he had
How can I explain to you
When somebody had been so very blue?
How can I tell you about my past
If all things won't end?
Mr Pitiful
That's my name now
They call me Mr. Pitiful, that's how I got my fame
But nobody seems to understand now
Ooh, what make a man feel so blue
They call me Mr. Pitiful 'cause I'm in love with you
Can I explain to you?
Everything is going wrong
I've lost everything I had
And I have to sing these sad songs to get back to her
And I want you
And I want you
And I want you
And I want you
And I want to tell you right now
Everything that's going through my mind
Sing
And I want to sing this song with you
And I'm gonna sing this song to everybody
'Cause I want them to understand what I'm talkin' about
I want you to understand what I'm sayin'
Baby, that's my name now, oh
Call me Mr. Pitiful, that's how I got my fame
But people just don't understand that
What makes a man feel so blue
Ooh, they call me Mr. Pitiful 'cause I lost someone just like you, yeah
They call me Mr. Pitiful
This, everybody know now
They call me Mr. Pitiful most every place I go
But nobody seems to understand now
How can a man sing such a sad song, now
Ooh, when he lost everything, when he lost everything that he had
How can I explain to you
When somebody had been so very blue?
How can I tell you about my past
If all things won't end?
Mr Pitiful
That's my name now
They call me Mr. Pitiful, that's how I got my fame
But nobody seems to understand now
Ooh, what make a man feel so blue
They call me Mr. Pitiful 'cause I'm in love with you
Can I explain to you?
Everything is going wrong
I've lost everything I had
And I have to sing these sad songs to get back to her
And I want you
And I want you
And I want you
And I want you
And I want to tell you right now
Everything that's going through my mind
Sing
And I want to sing this song with you
And I'm gonna sing this song to everybody
'Cause I want them to understand what I'm talkin' about
I want you to understand what I'm sayin'
