- Lonesome Loser Lyrics / with translations(chorus)
Have you heard about the lonesome loser?
Beaten by the Queen of Hearts every time
Have you heard about the lonesome loser?
He's a loser but he still keeps on trying
Sit down, take a look at yourself
Don't you want to be somebody?
Someday somebody's gonna see inside
You have to face up, you can't run and hide
(chorus)
Unlucky at love, at least that's what they say
He lost his head and he gambled his heart away
He still keeps searching though there's nothing left
Staked his heart and lost, now he has to pay the cost
(chorus)
"It's okay." he smiles and says
But this loneliness is driving him crazy
He don't show what goes on in his head
But if you watch very close you'll see it all
(instrumental)
Sit down, take a look at yourself
Don't you want to be somebody?
Someday somebody's gonna see inside
You have to face up, you can't run and hide
(chorus)
Have you heard about the lonesome loser?
Have you heard about the lonesome loser?
Have you heard about the lonesome loser?
Now tell me have you heard about the lonesome loser?
(repeat to fade)
Have you heard about the lonesome loser?
Beaten by the Queen of Hearts every time
Have you heard about the lonesome loser?
He's a loser but he still keeps on trying
Sit down, take a look at yourself
Don't you want to be somebody?
Someday somebody's gonna see inside
You have to face up, you can't run and hide
(chorus)
Unlucky at love, at least that's what they say
He lost his head and he gambled his heart away
He still keeps searching though there's nothing left
Staked his heart and lost, now he has to pay the cost
(chorus)
But this loneliness is driving him crazy
He don't show what goes on in his head
But if you watch very close you'll see it all
(instrumental)
Sit down, take a look at yourself
Don't you want to be somebody?
Someday somebody's gonna see inside
You have to face up, you can't run and hide
(chorus)
Have you heard about the lonesome loser?
Have you heard about the lonesome loser?
Have you heard about the lonesome loser?
Now tell me have you heard about the lonesome loser?
