[Verse 1]
So these are the halcyon days
I'll do my suffering tomorrow
As a kid I knocked out window panes
And my perversities were limitless
Now I need somebody like you
Because I'm on my own and tired, it's true

[Verse 2]
Turn now, tipsy elephant
Do you mind me quietly riding you?
I don't have too far to go
Just a little longer
And I need somebody like you
Because I'm on my own and tired, it's true

[Bridge]
And I need somebody like you
Because I'm on my own and tired, it's true

[Verse 3]
So these are the halcyon days
I'll do my suffering tomorrow
I once I knocked out window panes
And my cruelties were limitless
Now I need somebody like you
Because I'm on my own and tired, it's true
I need somebody like you
I'm on my own and tired, it's true
