EMOTIONAL OVERHAUL
By: Tom Formanek (ASCAP)
YOU CAN WASTE TIME FEELIN' SORRY
YOU CAN STAY IN BED ALL DAY
YOU CAN GIVE UP SEEIN' PEOPLE
THEY DON'T MATTER MUCH TO YOU ANYWAY
WHEN I TRY TO RING YOUR NUMBER
YOU HANG UP WHENEVER I CALL
BUT I'M NOT GIVING UP ON YOU JUST YET
BECAUSE YOUR NUMBER IS ON MY WALL
'CAUSE WHEN YOU'RE DOWN LIKE THAT
YOU NEED AN EMOTIONAL OVERHAUL
'CAUSE WHEN YOU'RE DOWN LIKE THAT
YOU NEED AN EMOTIONAL OVERHAUL
YOU'VE GOT FRIENDS WHO CARE ABOUT YOU
WE'RE ALL HERE AND YOU KNOW WHERE TO CALL
LET'S ALL MEET AND GET TOGETHER
THERE'S A PLACE RIGHT DOWN AT THE MALL
WHEN YOU GET THERE WE'LL BE WAITING
BEING ALONE IS SUCH A BORE
SO GET UP AND GET YOURSELF READY
OR WE'LL COME AND BEAT DOWN YOUR DOOR
'CAUSE WHEN YOU'RE DOWN LIKE THAT
YOU NEED AN EMOTIONAL OVERHAUL
'CAUSE WHEN YOU'RE DOWN LIKE THAT
YOU NEED AN EMOTIONAL OVERHAUL
