Lyrics

DESPERATE MAN

Desperate men do foolish things
When they take off their rings
Never listen with their heads
But with other parts instead

Desperate men don't see tomorrow
Filled with guilt and sorrow
They tell lies to their wives
And tear apart their lives

CHORUS: He sees something in the mirror
There goes a desperate man
Doesn't look like him at all
Trying even though he knows
She won't return his calls
Oh he's a desperate man

Desperate men end up alone
Look up when the whiskey's gone
He knows he once had it all
Now watch him as he falls

REPEAT CHORUS

It breaks my heart to watch
Think I've had enough
I'm all out of love

He sees something in the mirror
There goes a desperate man
Doesn't look like him at all
Trying even though he knows
I won't return his calls
Oh he's a desperate man

Oh he's a desperate man
