Jonas Brothers - Poor Unfortunate Souls lyrics

rate me

I admit that in the past I've been a nasty

They weren't kidding when they called me kinda strange

But you'll find that nowadays

I've mended all my ways

Repented, seen the light and made a change

And I fortunately know a little secret

It's a talent that I always have possessed

And here lately, please don't laugh

I use it on behalf

Of the miserable, *the* lonely and depressed

(Pathetic)

Poor unfortunate souls

In pain

In need

This one longing to be thinner

This one wants to get the girl

And do I help them?

Yes, indeed

Those poor unfortunate souls

So sad

So true

They come flocking to me crying

"Will you help us will you please?"

And I help them?

Yes, I do

The men up there don't like a lot of blabber

They think a girl who gossips is a bore

Yes, on land it's much preferred

For ladies not to say a word

And after all, dear, what is idle prattle for?

They're not all that impressed with conversation

Two gentlemen avoid it when they can

But they dote and swoon and fawn

On a lady who's withdrawn

It's she who holds her tongue who gets her man

Poor unfortunate souls

Go ahead!

Make your choice!

I'm a very busy person

And I haven't got all day

It won't cost much:

Just your voice!

Those poor unfortunate souls

So sad

So true

If you want to cross a bridge, my sweet

You've got to pay the toll

Take a gulp, take a breath

and go ahead, sign the scroll

(Nick and Kevin, now I've got her, boys)

The boss is on a roll

You poor unfortunate souls

In pain

In need

This one longing to be thinner

This one wants to get the girl

And do I help them?

Yes, indeed

Those poor unfortunate souls

So sad

So true

They come flocking to me crying

"Will you help us will you please?"

And I help them?

Yes, I do

Those poor unfortunate souls...
