Nobody But You

(album: Songs For Drella - 1990)

I really care a lot
Although I look like I do not
Since I was shot
There's nobody but you

I know I look blasé
Party Andy's what the papers say
At dinner I'm the one who pay
For a nobody like you

Nobody but you
Nobody like you
Since I got shot
There's nobody but you

Won't you decorate my house?
I'll sit there quiet as a mouse
You know me, I like to look a lot
At nobody but you

I'll hold your hand and slap my face
I'll tickle you, to your disgrace
Won't you put me in my proper place?
A nobody like you

Sundays I pray a lot
I like to wind you up and paint your clock
I want to be what I am not
For a nobody like you

The bullet split my spleen and lung
The doctor said that I was gone
Inside I've got some shattered bone
For nobody but you

Nobody but you
Nobody like you
Shattered bone
For nobody but you

I'm still not sure I didn't die
And if I'm dreaming I still have bad pains inside
I know I'll never be a bride, to nobody like you
I wish I had a stronger chin
My skin was good, my nose was thin
This is no movie I'd ask to be in
With a nobody like you

Nobody like you
A nobody like you
All my life, it's been nobodies like you
