He didn't wonder
All the time he knew
It was the wrong thing
But the best that he could do

Another hand out
Another flick of the wrist
Another love song
11th on the list

He didn't look back
Ahead's the only way
Still it feels like dying a little
Day by day

Another pick up
Another lonely heart to break
Another sad girl
11th on the list

It's such a boost to the ego, man!
And such a bite to the feeding hand;
She'll never believe you again...
