lyrics

My heart, it ain’t runnin right.
Won’t you give it a kick.
Will you be my handy man?
Will you do the trick?
I count the days as they pass me by.
My tock is a nervous tick.
Won’t you free my hands of time?
Won’t you do the trick?
All my marbles gone down the drain.
You could say I’m a lunatic.
Won’t you set my mind at ease?
Will you do the trick?
I burnt the candle on every side.
Long since run out of wick.
Will you be my flame tonight?
Will you do the trick?
I been split down the middle.
Call a doctor in quick!
I’m in need of a better half.
Will you do the trick?
I just can’t find my way all alone.
Man this fog is so thick.
Won’t you shine your light for me?
Will you do the trick?
I’ve thrown everything at the wall,
but nothing will stick.
Won’t you hang around a while?
Won’t you do the trick?
I could build you a home on high,
I could lay each and every brick.
Will you be there by my side?
Will you do the trick?
