Lonely Alcoholic

You're a lonely alcoholic with a tendency to wine
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

Oh, 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?
Oh, 'cause the dirt on which we're stepping is the one in which we will be found

Oh 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?
Oh, 'cause the dirt on which we're stepping is the one in which we will be found

Oh baby, don't leave me alone
