A Bachelor's Lament

Words and Music by Nemo James

I go where I want to, do as I please
follow the sunshine, sail with the breeze
no need to argue, or make a scene
don't have to say where I have been

I sleep the whole night with the sheets on my back
I can pack all I own into one sack
don't hear complaining, I hear no tears
don't have to count the cans of beer

CHORUS
love, I know can be so unkind
it can crush your heart and rob you blind
I know it only brings you pain
but I wish I were in love again

don't have to sit through hours of ballet
can sit by the T.V. and eat from a tray
don't have to visit people I can't stand
can keep my head buried firmly in the sand

I get no complaints about nothing to wear
I get through the day on a song and a prayer
don't have to come home after a flirt
worrying about the lipstick on my shirt
