New Monkees - Affection lyrics

The girl I used to live with she had a bad dream. She couldn't put it into words so she put it in a sceam. She crawled out of the window she stood up on the ledge she waved at all the people and then she jumped back from the edge she said I'm not crazy I'm just a little bored I'm tired of being lonely I'm tired of being ignored I need some affection and I need it from you has anybody ever told you what a little affection can do The guy I went to school with he had a wife and a son a house in the suburbs and a loaded shotgun Drove out on the highway put his foot on the floor never gone a secred though just couldn't take that life anymore CHORUS A person that I read about or saw him on TV They were talking him to prison You know it could be you or me He was trying to get attention and he did something very bad He was trying to take something everybody should already have Repeat chorus
