Been beat up and battered around
Been sent up and Ive been shut down
Youre the best thing that Ive ever found
Handle me with care
Reputations changeable
Situations tolerable
But baby youre adorable
Handle me with care

Im so tired of being lonely
I still have some love to give
Wont you show me that you really care?
Everybodys got somebody to lean on
Put your body next to mine and dream on

Ive been fucked up and Ive been fooled
Ive been robbed and ridiculed
Daycare census and night schools
Handle me with care

Been stuck in airports, terrorized
Sent to meetings, hypnotized
Overexposed commercialized
Handle me with care

Im so tired of being lonely
I still have some love to give
Wont you show me that you really care
Everybodys got somebody to lean on
Put your body next to mine and dream on

Ive been uptight and made a mess
But Ill clean it up myself I guess
Oh the sweet smell of success
Handle me with care
