Been beat up and battered around

Been sent up and i've been shut down

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

Handle me with care

Reputations changeable

Situations tolerable

But 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 up and i've been fooled

I've been robbed and ridiculed

Daycare census 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
