BEEN BEAT UP
AND BATTERED AROUND
BEEN SENT UP
AND I'VE BEEN SHOT DOWN
YOU'RE THE BEST THING
THAT I'VE EVER FOUND
HANDLE ME WITH CARE
REPUTATION'S CHANGEABLE
SITUATION'S TOLERABLE
BUT, BABY, YOU'RE ADORABLE
HANDLE ME WITH CARE
I'M SO TIRED OF BEIN' LONELY
I STILL HAVE SOME LOVE TO GIVE
WON'T YOU SHOW ME
THAT YOU REALLY CARE
EVERYBODY'S GOT SOMEBODY
TO LEAN ON
PUT YOUR BODY NEXT TO MINE
AND DREAM ON
I'VE BEEN FOBBED OFF
AND I'VE BEEN FOOLED
I'VE BEEN ROBBED
AND RIDICULED
IN DAY-CARE CENTRES
AND NIGHT-SCHOOLS
HANDLE ME WITH CARE
BEEN STUCK IN AIRPORTS
TERRORISED
SENT TO MEETIN'S HYPNOTISED
OVEREXPOSED, COMMERCIALISED
HANDLE ME WITH CARE
I'M SO TIRED OF BEIN' LONELY
I STILL HAVE SOME LOVE TO GIVE
WON'T YOU SHOW ME
THAT YOU REALLY CARE
EVERYBODY GOT SOMEBODY
TO LEAN ON
PUT YOUR BODY NEXT TO MINE
AND DREAM ON
I'VE BEEN UPTIGHT
AND MADE A MESS
BUT I'LL CLEAN IT UP MYSELF
I GUESS
OH, THE SWEET SMELL
OF SUCCESS
HANDLE ME WITH CARE
