Desperately seeking
someone to love
someone to hate
a reason to humiliate
Desperately seeking
to find some direction
to make a connection
to feel your rejection
Desperately seeking
a little hope
some way to cope
the noose of a rope
Desperately seeking
A Ginsu knife
the meaning of life
somebody's wife
Desperately seeking
my moment of fame
where to lay the blame
an end to this shame
Desperately seeking
another shot at the top
some wings when I drop
back into the slop
Desperately seeking
Susan
Fernando
Willy
and Betty Jean
a place to lie down
and a chance to come clean
Desperately seeking
to find a new game
like ants at a picnic
where nobody came
That sounds a bit of quandary -- It isn't that easy, but how easily you translate those to words, Tim
