Been beat up and battered 'round.
Been sent up and I've been shot down.
You're the best thing that I've ever found.
Handle me with care.Reputation's changeable.
Situation's tolerable.
Baby you're adorable.
Handle me with care.I'm so tired of being lonely.
I still have some love to give.
Won't you show me that you really care.Everybody's got somebody to lean on.
Put your body next to mine and dream on.I've been fucked off and I've been fooled.
I've been robbed and ridiculed.
In day care centers and night schools.
Handle me with care.Been stuck in airports, terrorized.
Sent to meetings hypnotized.
Overexposed, commercialized.
Handle me with care.I'm so tired of being lonely,
I still have some love to give.
Won't you show me that you really care.Everybody's got somebody to lean on.
Put your body next to mine and dream on.I've been uptight and made a mess.
I'd clean it up myself I guess.
Oh the sweet smell of success.
Handle me with care.
