When I'm feeling blue I stick a pin in the picture of you Beside my bed and I feel better When I'm feeling sad I remember that you were the worst lay I ever had And I feel better Don't you try to tell me That I'm to blame You're the one that ought to feel ashamed You can't keep an animal that ain't been tamed You didn't even know the fella's name When I'm feeling down I just throw the clothes that you left here around And I feel better When I'm feeling great It's only because I'm consumed with hate For you and I feel better Don't you try to tell me that I'm to blame When you're the one that ought to feel ashamed You can't keep an animal that ain't been tamed You didn't even know the fella's name When I'm in the mood I shout all the swear words that you thought were rude And I feel better When I feel alone I make obscene remarks on the telephone To you and I feel better Don't you try to tell me that I'm to blame When you're the one that ought to feel ashamed You can't keep an animal that ain't been tamed You didn't even know the fella's name When I'm feeling blue I stick a pin in the picture of you Beside my bed and I feel better When I'm feeling sad I remember that you were the worst lay I ever had And I feel better Don't you try to tell me that I'm to blame When you're the one that ought to feel ashamed You can't keep an animal that ain't been tamed You didn't even know the fella's name
