Dang, just checked out those lyrics and they're pretty spot on. I just picked it because I wanted something empowering, rather than "gonnadieifhdoesntcomeback"...
"Poor, Poor, Pitiful Me" (written by Warren Zevon):
I'd lay my head on the railroad tracks And wait for the Double "E" But the railroad don't run no more Poor, poor pitiful me
Poor, poor pitiful me Poor, poor pitiful me These young girls won't let me be Lord have mercy on me Woe is me
Well, I met a girl in West Hollywood I ain't naming names She really worked me over good She was just like Jesse James She really worked me over good She was a credit to her gender She put me through some changes, Lord Sort of like a Waring blender
"Poor, Poor, Pitiful Me" (written by Warren Zevon)
Or, Billie Holiday singing
Everything Happens to Me
Black cats creep across my path Until Im almost mad I must have roused the devils wrath cause all my luck is bad I make a date for golf and you can bet your life it rains I try to give a party and the guy upstairs complains I guess Ill go thru life kust catchin colds and missin trains
Everything happens to me I never miss a thing Ive had the measels and the mumps And every time I play an ace My partner always trumps Guess Im just a fool who never looks before he jumps
Everything happens to me At first my heart thot you could break this jinx for me That love would turn the trick to end despair But know I just cant fool this head that thinks for me Ive mortgaged all my castlesin the air Ive telegraphed and phoned I send an airmail special too Your answer was goodbye And there was even postage due I fell in love just once And then it had to be with you
All these years by Mac McAnally has to be the best cheatin' song ever written. Have to wonder how many people change the station when that comes on in the car.
My vote goes to, Let Me Roll It by Paul McCartney & Wings, for SSM theme song:
"You gave me something, i understand, You gave me loving in the palm of my hand"
