You can't stand on your own two feet   And there's no way you'll try at all   The evening news and the TV screens   You're sick and sad and spoiled   Sympathy is a luxury   And it's the only thing you've known   Forget about it, it's been too long   Forget about it, it's been too long   You gotta go it alone   You gotta fight it alone    You gotta go it alone      You can't stand on your own two feet   And there's no way you'll try at all   The evening news and the TV screens   You're sick and sad and spoiled   Sympathy is a luxury   And it's the only thing you've known   Forget about it, it's been too long   Forget about it, it's been too long   You gotta go it alone   You gotta fight it alone    You gotta go it alone
