The Alan Parson Project I Don T Wanna Go Home lyrics

(Lead vocal - Lenny Zakatek)

Go back home you damn fool
Surely you know you can`t win
You should never have come near this place
You should have stayed outside, Lookin` in

It`s too late to turn back
Nobody asked you to try
But they blinded you with diamonds
And all the money that money can buy

And I`m so afraid of being on my own
But I don`t wanna go home

You can`t win you damn fool
You drank all the wine from the cup
And your painted lady`s gone now
And you`re way back on the downside, Lookin` up

You can`t catch the monkey on your back
Nobody asked you to try
But for every heart they held a spade
And you lost more than money can buy

And I`m so afraid of being on my own
But I don`t wanna go home

I`m like a washed up rag
Tattered and torn
I wish I`d never been born

And I`m so afraid of being on my own
But I don`t wanna go home
I`m like a down and out just blowin` my horn
Oh I don`t wanna go home

I`m like a washed up rag
Tattered and torn
Oh I don`t wanna go home
