Been beat up and battered around Been sent up and i've been shut down You're the best thing that i've ever found Handle me with care Reputations changeable Situations tolerable But baby you're adorable Handle me with care I'm so tired of being lonely I still have some love to give Won't you show me that you really care? Everybody's got somebody to lean on Put your body next to mine and dream on I've been fucked up and i've been fooled I've been robbed and ridiculed Daycare census and night schools Handle me with care Been stuck in airports, terrorized Sent to meetings, hypnotized Overexposed commercialized Handle me with care I'm so tired of being lonely I still have some love to give Won't you show me that you really care Everybody's got somebody to lean on Put your body next to mine and dream on I've been uptight and made a mess But i'll clean it up myself i guess Oh the sweet smell of success Handle me with care
