Affection - Lyrics by New Monkees


Lyrics
The girl I used to live withshe had a bad dream.
She couldn't put it into wordsso she put it in a sceam.
She crawled out of the windowshe stood up on the ledgeshe waved at all the peopleand then she jumped back from the edgeshe said
I'm not crazy
I'm just a little bored
I'm tired of being lonely
I'm tired of being ignored
I need some affectionand I need it from youhas anybody ever told youwhat a little affection can do
The guy I went to school withhe had a wife and a sona house in the suburbsand a loaded shotgun
Drove out on the highwayput his foot on the floornever gone a secred thoughjust couldn't take that life anymore
CHORUSA person that I read aboutor saw him on TV
They were talking him to prison
You know it could be you or me
He was trying to get attentionand he did something very bad
He was trying to takesomething everybody should already have
Repeat chorus

Book: Shattered Sighs
