Well it's a shame when you got nobody 

And it's a drag when you got no friends 

But it's a worse when you get no mercy 

And you're startin' all over again 



And back in my own world 

Nobody bugs me 

But down on the shop floor 

They show me no mercy 



I've been down to the railway station 

I've been over to the taxi stand 

I've been standing in the lobby of the Hyatt Hotel 

But I've never seen a helpin' hand 



I'm lookin' for someone 

Not out to get me 

I'm keepin' my guard up 

Expectin' no mercy 



No mercy 

No pity 

There's no mercy for me 

No sympathy 



They say it's just like a gentle rainfall 

But it ain't never rained on me 

And back in my own world 

Nobody bugs me 

But down on the shop floor 

They show me no mercy 



No mercy 

No pity 

There's no mercy for me 

No sympathy
