[Verse 1]
I lent you a hand but you never gave it back
I lent you a hand but you never gave it back
You said you had grown very fond of my fingers
The way that the touch of the tips of them lingers
And you couldn't possibly part with them now
Carry them 'round
In your handbag
[Verse 2]
And I lent you a light when everything round you was black
And I lent you a light when everything round you was black
You light your cigarettes ts ts
(You said you had grown very fond of my fingers
The way that the touch of the tips of them lingers)
And then you left
[Chorus 1]
And you need a place to put your hands
I said you could lay 'em on my hips
You need a place to put your kisses
I said you could use my lips
[Verse 3]
Oh I lent you a shoulder, a shoulder to lean upon
I said you could keep it until you were feeling strong
But you've taken advantage of my kind loan
You carry it 'round town, pass it off as your own
And everyone thinks that you're so very kind
But nobody knows that that shoulder is mine
[Chorus 2]
And you need a place to put your hat
I said you could lay it right there
You were looking for some thing to do
With all those things that trouble you
I said I would lend you an ear
[Verse 4/Outro]
But worst of all I gave you my heart
'Cause yours wasn't working too good
But I am not spare parts
For you to use, and you to use, like your
(do-do-do-do)
You use me and you lose me yeah you do
