Lyrics
I heard you crying loud, All the way across town You've been searching for that someone, And it's me out on the prowl As you sit around feeling sorry for yourself Well, don't get lonely now And dry your whining eyes I'm just roaming for the moment Sleazin' my back yard so don't get so uptight You been thinking about ditching me No time to search the world around Cause you know where I'll be found When I come around I heard it all before So don't knock down my door I'm a loser and a user so I don't need no accuser To try and slag me down because I know you're right So go do what you like Make sure you do it wise You may find out that your self-doubt means nothing Was ever there You can't go forcing something if it's just Not right No time to search the world around Cause you know where I'll be found When I come around No time to search the world around Cause you know where I'll be found When I come around When I come around When I come around When I come around
