Mr. Pitiful
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
They call me Mr. Pitiful
Girl that's my name
They call me Mr. Pitiful
That's how I got my fame
Everybody want's to know
What makes a man feel so blue
Oh they call me Mr. Pitiful
Since I lost someone just like you
They call me Mr. Pitiful
Yes everybody knows now
They call me Mr. Pitiful
Most every place I go now
No body seems to understand
What makes a man sing such a sad sad song
When you've lost every thing
When you've lost every thing
Yeah Yeah!
How can I explain to you
What makes me act so very blue
How'm I supposed to make you see
Oh nothing will do
Oh yeah Mr. Pitiful
Yeah baby that's my name
Mr. Pitiful
That's how I got my fame
Everyone want's to know now
What makes a man feel so blue
Oh Mr. Pitiful
Since I lost someone just like you
Everything is going wrong
Everything I had is gone
I gotta sing such a sad song
I gotta sing it
One more time(X8)
Yeah yeah
