It took a lost weekend in a Hotel in Amsterdam
And a double pneumonia in a single room
And the sickest joke was the price of the medicine
Are you laughing at me now,
May I please laugh along with you

This morning I woke, from a deep unquiet sleep
With ashtray clothes and miss lonely heart's pen
With which I wrote for you a love song in tattoo upon my palm
'twas stolen from me when Jesus took my hand
(w/Riff 1)
You see,I.... I wouldn't say it if I didn't mean it
drop me and I'll fall to pie-ces so easily
Pre-Verse:
x2 (w/ Riff 1 and Riff 2)
I was a king bee, with a head full of attitude
Wore my heart on my sleeve like a stain
and my aim was taboo - you could remain in the market place
did I ever hey please did you woo my knees
(w/Riff 1)
You see,I.... I wouldn't say it if I didn't mean it
drop me and I'll fall to pie-ces yea too easily
there's nobody esle to blame
Will I hang my head in a crying shame
There's nobody else to blame
Nobody else except my sweet self a-gain
( x4) (First on the gain from again)

It took a lost weekend in a hotel in Amsterdam
Twenty four gone years to conclude in tears
That the sickest joke was the price of the medicine
Are you laughing at me now
May I please laugh along
(w/Riff 1 and Riff 2)
I was a king bee with a head full of attitude
And astray heart on my sleeve wounded knees
And my one love song was a tattoo upon my palm
You wrote upon me when you took my hand
Out Chorus:
You see I
I wouldn't say it if I didn't mean it
Drop me and I'll fall to pieces
Too easily
Too easily
Too easily
( x4) (w/Riff 1 and Riff 2)
