I know a girl who's lost and lonely Sits by the phone on her own But the phone don't ring And the birds don't sing in her tree She lost herself in a haze of pity And doesn't know where to run She's a headshrinker now And I think it's time we have some fun Lost in a fog I've been treated like a dog And I'm out of here I got no name And I feel no shame And I got no fear And I bow down To the tears of a clown Whatever's going down Is coming around I hope you don't regret today For the rest of your lives For the rest of your lives For the rest of your lives For the rest of your lives Lost in a fog I've been treated like a dog And I'm out of here I got no name And I feel no shame And I got no fear And I bow down To the tears of a clown Whatever's going down Is coming around I hope you don't regret today For the rest of your lives I know a girl who's lost and lonely Sits by the phone on her own But the phone don't ring And the birds don't sing in her tree She lost herself in a haze of pity And doesn't know where to run She's a headshrinker now And I think it's time we have some fun Lost in a fog I've been treated like a dog And I'm out of here I got no name And I feel no shame And I got no fear And I bow down To the tears of a clown Whatever's going down Is coming around I hope you don't regret today For the rest of your lives For the rest of your lives For the rest of your lives For the rest of your lives
