I lent you a hand but you never gave it back I lent you a hand but you never gave it back You said you had grown very fond of my fingers, the way that the touch of the tips of them lingers and you couldn't possibly part with them now so you carry them around, in your ha-andbag I lent you a light when everything around you was black I lent you a light when everything around you was bla-ack And you lit you cigarette And then you left And you needed a place to put your hands I said "You could lay 'em on my hips" And you needed a place to put your kisses I said "You could use my lips" I lent you a shoulder, a shoulder to lean upon I said you could keep it until you were feeling strong You'd taken advantage of my kind loan You carry it 'round town, pass it off as your own And everybody thinks that you're so very kind But nobody knows that that shoulder is mi-ine And you needed a place to put your *hat* I said you could lay it right here You were looking for something to do With all those things that trouble you I said, I would lend you an ear Worst of all, I gave you my he-art 'Cause yours wasn't working too good I am not spare pa-arts for you to use and you to loose, no do do do do do do do do do do do do do do (repeat x3) You use me and you lose me yeah you do
