When it's in another pair of hands
And a loser I will be
For I've never been a winner
In my life
I used the sucker pills
And pity for the self
Though it's the animal in me
But I'd rather be a beggar man
On the shelf

Don't be so forlorn
It's just the payoff
It's the rain before the storm
On a better day
I'll take you by the hand
And lead you thru' the doors

Don't you let my letter
Get you down

My my, but time do fly
When it's in another pair of pants
And illusion I will be
For I've never been a sinner
La-de-dah
