Need a Little Help

Dialed the number for emergency
I might survive a week or two

When I’m up, I wanna sleep

He said, "There’s nothin’ we can do"
If you could spare a little touch, touch, touch
Your hurt has cooled my fire into

I’m gonna need a little help, help, help
I’m gonna need a little help, help, help
And nearly everybody said
While I’m gettin’ over you
Is the poundin’ of my heart

I’m gonna need a little help, help, help
While I’m gettin’ over you
Your hurt has cooled my fire into
I’m just a flicker of myself, self, self
If you could spare a little touch, touch, touch
While I’m gettin’ over you
Ever since you made me leave
I’m gonna need a little help, help, help
I’m gonna need a little help, help, help
While I’m gettin’ over you
I might survive a week or two
Bells are ringin’ in my ears
If you could spare a little touch, touch, touch
I might survive a week or two

While I’m gettin’ over you
I’m just a flicker of myself, self, self

Sheriff said to tough it out

I’m just a flicker of myself, self, self
Mama dropped the chicken soup
I’m gonna need a little help, help, help
I had a caption by my head
Preacher said, "It’s gonna kill you, son"
I’m gonna need a little help, help, help

I’m just a flicker of myself, self, self
But the only thing I hear
And she confirmed without a doubt
Your hurt has cooled my fire into
I’m gonna need a little help, help, help
While I’m gettin’ over you
I called my psychic friend on Channel Three
Your hurt has cooled my fire into
Asked the doctor for some medicine

Can’t remember wrong or right
I’m gonna need a little help, help, help
They polled the people for the public view
While I’m gettin’ over you
When I’m asleep, I wanna fight
First I’m fallin’ to my knees
Then I’m hangin’ by my tail
I saw my picture in the evening news
I’m gonna need a little help, help, help
Wolf is howlin’ in the yard
While I’m gettin’ over you
If you could spare a little touch, touch, touch
I might survive a week or two

While I’m gettin’ over you
