Lyrics[]
Why do you come here And why, why do you hang around I'm so sorry I'm so sorry Why do you come here When you know it makes things hard for me When you know, oh Why do you come Why do you telephone And why, why send me silly notes I'm so sorry I'm so sorry Why do you come here When you know it makes things hard for me When you know, oh Why do you come You had to break into my room Just to read my diary It was just to see, just to see All the things you knew I'd written about you Oh, so many illustrations Oh, but I'm so sickened I am so sickened now It was a good lay, good lay It was a good lay, good lay It was a good lay, good lay, good lay, oh
