left alone

You made you make your overtures When you were a sure and orotund mutt And I was still a dewey petal Rather than a moribund slut My love wrecked you You packed to twirl your skirt at the palace It hurt more than it ought to hurt I went to work to cultivate a callus And now I'm hard, too hard to know I don't cry when I'm sad any more, no no Tears calcify in my tummy Fears coincide with the tow How can I ask anyone to love me When all I do is beg to be left alone? Oh, when I try to love I can love the same man in the same bed in the same city But not in the same room, it's a pity, but Oh, it never bothered me before Not 'til this guy, what a guy, oh God what a good guy And I can't even enjoy him And now I'm hard, too hard to know I don't cry when I'm sad any more, no no Tears calcify in my tummy Fears coincide with the tow How can I ask anyone to love me When all I do is beg to be left When all I do is beg to be left When all I do is beg to be left alone Alone, alone My ills are reticulate My woes are granular The ants weigh more than the elephants Nothing, nothing is manageable So couldn't we stop the valedictories? I can see a the door there Shut it and forget my number And now I'm hard, too hard to know I don't cry when I'm sad any more, no no Tears calcify in my tummy Fears coincide with the tow How can I ask anyone to love me When all I do is beg to be left When all I do is beg to be left When all I do is beg to be left alone
