Handle with Care

I've been beat up and I've been battered 'round

I've been sent up and I've been shot down

You're the best thing I've ever found

Handle me with care

Reputations changeable

Situations tolerable

Baby, you're adorable

Handle me with care

I'm so tired of being lonely

I still have some love to give

Won't you show me that you really care?

Everybody got somebody to lean on

Put your body next to mine and dream on

I've been fobbed off and I've been fooled

And I've been robbed and ridiculed

In daycare centers and in night schools

Handle me with care

I've been stuck in airports and terrorized

Sent to meetings and hypnotized

Overexposed, commercialized

Handle me with care

I'm so tired of being lonely

I still have some love to give

Won't you show me that you really care?

Everybody got somebody to lean on

Put your body next to mine and dream on

I've been uptight and I made a mess

But I'll clean it up myself, I guess

Oh, the sweet smell of success

Handle me with care

I've been beat up and I've been battered 'round

I've been sent up and I've been shot down

But you're the best thing I've ever found

Handle me with care
