Sometimes the looks I get
From people that i've never met, it's cruel
Poor hard done by you Sometimes I hear remarks
Like he's a snake out in the grass, it's cruel
Poor hard done by you Well I beat around the bush a lot
Don't let my feelings show
'Cause if I did i'd surely hit the roof Maybe if you'd listened
You'd've known something was missing
What I say surely is the truth Well i've been working on this overtime
You might think that I don't care
But if you look inside this heart of mine
You'll still be there Some lovers won't admit
That all the pieces just won't fit, it's cruel
Poor hard done by you So tell me that i'm blind
To let my heart go rule my mind, it's cruel
Poor hard done by you Well i've been working on this overtime
You might think that I don't care
But if you look inside this heart of mine
You'll still be there I've been working on this overtime
What's been done I can't repair
But if you look inside this heart of mine
You'll still be there My wanderlust betrayed your trust
Don't want forgiving
All things must change, it ain't so strange
Life's for the living
(Baby baby please) I've been working on this overtime
You might think that I don't care
But if you look inside this heart of mine
You'll still be there I've been working on this overtime
What's been done I can't repair
But if you look inside this heart of mine
You'll still be there I've been working on this overtime
You might think that I don't care
But if you look inside this heart of mine
You'll still be there Poor hard done by you
