On The Shelf

(album: Goin' Coconuts - 1978)

You took my love and you threw it away
Gave you my heart and you took it that day
T-t-t-took it away
T-t-t-took it away
Mmm, and I want it back

Went for a drive just the other day
I left my heart and you towed it away
T-t-t-towed it away
T-t-t-towed it away
And I want it back

I'm like a dog without a bone
I'm like a house that's not a home
I'm like a watch that nobody wants to wind
I'm like a lock without a key
Nobody wants to lean on me
I'm so lonely, lonely without you
There on the shelf am I
Baby, there on the shelf am I

Went to a party 'cause you said you would go
I sat around but you didn't show
No no no you didn't show
No no no you didn't show
No no, no no

I ring your house I don't get no reply
Well, I don't know I think you're telling me lies
T-t-t-telling me lies
T-t-t-telling me lies
Oh oh oh-oh

I'm like a dog without a bone
I'm like a house that's not a home
I'm like a watch that nobody wants to wind
I'm like a lock without a key
Nobody wants to lean on me
I'm so lonely, lonely without you
There on the shelf am I
Baby, there on the shelf am I

Baby, there on the shelf am I...
