Lyric

Look at yourself

If you had a sense of humor

You would laugh to beat the band

Look at yourself

Do you still believe the rumor

That romance is simply grand?

Since you took it on the chin

You have lost that toothpaste grin

My mental state is all a jumble

I sit around and sadly mumble

Fools rush in, so here am I

Very glad to be unhappy

I can't win, but here am I

More than glad to be unhappy

Unrequited love's a bore

And I've got it pretty bad

But for someone you adore

It's a pleasure to be sad

Like a straying baby lamb

With no mammy and no pappy

I'm so unhappy

But oh, so glad

Unrequited love's a bore

And I've got it pretty bad

But for someone you adore

It's a pleasure to be sad

Like a straying baby lamb

With no mammy and no pappy

I'm so unhappy

But oh, so glad

- It's already the end -
