How Soon Is Now? Lyrics

I am the son and the heir
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and heir
Of the nothing in particularYou shut your mouth, how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else doesI am the son and the heir
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and the heir
Of nothing in particularYou shut your mouth, how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else doesThere's a club
If you'd like to go
You could meet somebody
Who really loves youSo you go and you stand on your own
And you leave on your own
And you go home

And you cry and you want to dieWhen you say it's gonna happen now
Well, when exactly do you mean?
See, I've already waited too long
And all my hope is goneYou shut your mouth, how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does
