(spooner/steen/prince/welnick/cotten/anderson/waybill/styles) Well it's a shame when you got nobody And it's a drag when you got no friends But it's a worse when you get no mercy And you're startin' all over again And back in my own world Nobody bugs me But down on the shop floor They show me no mercy I've been down to the railway station I've been over to the taxi stand I've been standing in the lobby of the hyatt hotel
But i've never seen a helpin' hand I'm lookin' for someone Not out to get me I'm keepin' my guard up Expectin' no mercy No mercy No pity There's no mercy for me No sympathy They say it's just like a gentle rainfall But it ain't never rained on me And back in my own world Nobody bugs me But down on the shop floor They show me no mercy No mercy No pity There's no mercy for me No sympathy
