  • You look like a perfect fit
    For a girl in need of a tourniquet

    But can you save me
    Come on and save me
    If you could save me
    From the ranks of the freaks
    Who suspect they could never love anyone

    'Cause I can tell
    You know what it's like
    The long farewell
    Of the hunger strike

    But can you save me
    Come on and save me
    If you could save me
    From the ranks of the freaks
    Who suspect they could never love anyone

    You struck me down like radium
    Like Peter Pan or Superman

    You will come to save me
    Come on and save me
    If you could save me
    From the ranks of the freaks
    Who suspect they could never love anyone
    Except the freaks
    Who suspect they could never love anyone
    But the freaks
    Who suspect they could never love anyone

    Come on and save me
    Why don't you save me
    If you could save me
    From the ranks of the freaks
    Who suspect they could never love anyone

    Except the freaks
    Who suspect they could never love anyone
    Except the freaks who could never love anyone Writer/s: Aimee Mann

  • Lee from MassachusettsI love the short musical quote that comes in during an instrumental at 3:20, from the song "Superstar", which was a hit for the Carpenters. Also a song about loneliness.
