Why Pick On Me Lyrics By The Standells

    puzzled lips dipped in wine
    out to get this heart of mine
    candy kisses don’t mean a thing
    if only lies those kisses bring

    platinum hair black at the roots
    short short skirts and dirty boots
    have an act and that’s surely a fact
    to try to make my poor heart cry

    why pick on me
    why pick on me
    do you get your kicks when you see men cry
    why pick on me yeah
    why pick on me
    is this the way i’ll have to get your heart

    if you choose to play the field
    then you choose to know how it feels
    when somebody messes you up
    when he thinks that you’ve had enough

    why pick on me
    why pick on me
    do you get your kicks when you see men cry
    why pick on me yeah
    why pick on me
    is this the way i’ll have to get your heart

    long hair up against my skin
    but never once have you given in
    to any one of my wants or needs
    no matter how my poor heart bleeds

    why pick on me
    why pick on me
    do you get your kicks when you see men cry
    why pick on me yeah
    why pick on me
    is this the way i’ll have to get your heart

    does it feel good
    why pick on me baby
    why pick on me
    do you get your kicks when you see me cry
    why pick on me baby
    why pick on me
    do you get your kicks when you see me cry
