Lyrics:
Find me, wrecked in the morning
I'm waiting
For the wheels to get rollin'
Stumblin'
Got a headache callin'
Some say
Far more than harmless
Yeah, baby, harmless

Rainin', waitin' for the sunset
Complainin'
Just to hear myself talkin'
Broke down
So lonely hearted
Some say
When the show gets going
Yes, baby, going

And everybody's gone singin'
Man he looks a wreck
Singin'
What a charming little mess
Singin'
Wonder if he'll see next week

Catch me, down the train twistin'
Pinch me
Just to see if I'm breathing
Bleedin'
It's only when I'm singin'
I know, I could never see clearer
Oh yes baby clearer

And everybody's gone singin'
Man he looks a wreck
Singin'
What a charming little mess
Singin'
Wonder if he'll see next week
