Jenny Lewis - Handle With Care lyrics

rate me

Lyrics by the Travelling Wilburys

been beat up and battered 'round

been sent up, and i've been shot down

you're the best thing that i've ever found

handle me with care

reputations changeable

situations tolerable

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 off and i've been fooled

i've been robbed and ridiculed

in daycare centers 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
