Well I get into the game, but it's always the same

Call me whatever you may, I ain't stoppin' the train

I get a feel for the fame Hip Eponymous Poor Boy, poor boy
C

And I know that I can't defeat you
D
G
Yeah, you don't worry now, I ain't going to preach to you
C
G
Well, there you go, but I'll be going right there with you
D
G
Yeah wherever you'll be, you'll be lookin' at me
But don't get out of your chair, put a bow in your hair
You might be makin' 'em stare, so leave the care to the poor boy, the poor boy
And that's the name of the game, keep on stayin' the same
Ain't nobody to blame, nobody but the poor boy, the poor boy
Well OK, so you fell asleep today
What's funny to me though is that you did that yesterday
You might think I'm mad for doing all the things that I don't need to do
But while you're laughin' at me, well I'll be laughin' at you
So I get into the game, but always keep it the same
And I'll be usin' your name, but they'll be yellin' at me "Poor boy, poor boy"
But I'll be happy for you, cause you got nothin' to do
And I'll be singin' the blues, walkin' around singin' "Poor boy, poor boy"
Sometimes a cold shiver comes over me
And it turns me on when the song takes over me
But alright, I can't fight it the odds are against me
But I can't sit still because I know that I will
And you'll be watching me girl, takin' over the world
Let the stripes unfurl, gettin' rich singin' "Poor boy, poor boy"
And I'll be comin' to play, I do it every day
And the title will stay, Hip Eponymous Poor Boy, poor boy
Stick a knife inside of me and twist it all around

I want love to grab my fingers gently
A

Slam them in a doorway, put my face into the ground
I want love to murder my own mother
And take her off to somewhere like hell or up above
And I want love to change my friends to enemies
Change my friends to enemies and show me how it's all my fault

I won't let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me

I want love to walk right up and bite me
Grab a hold of me and fight me and leave me dying on the ground
I want love to split my mouth wide open
And cover up my ears and never let me hear a sound
I want love to forget that you offended me
Or how you have defended me when everybody talked me down
I want love to change my friends to enemies
Change my friends to enemies and show me how it's all my fault
I won't let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me
I won't let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me
