Lyrics
Been beat up and battered ’roundBeen sent up, and I’ve been shot down You’re the best thing that I’ve ever found Handle me with careReputations changeableSituations tolerable Baby, you’re adorable Handle me with careI’m so tired of being lonelyI still have some love to give Won’t you show me that you really care?Everybody’s got somebody to lean onPut your body next to mine, and dream onI’ve been fobbed off, and I’ve been fooledI’ve been robbed and ridiculed In daycare centers and night schools Handle me with careBeen stuck in airports, terrorizedSent to meetings, hypnotized Overexposed, commercialized Handle me with careI’m so tired of being lonelyI still have some love to give Won’t you show me that you really care?Everybody’s got somebody to lean onPut your body next to mine, and dream onI’ve been uptight and made a messBut I’ll clean it up myself, I guess Oh, the sweet smell of success Handle me with care
