I can't get up anymore, my heart ticks so slow
There's nothing to do, I'm picking my nose
I'm counting the days that you have been gone
My heart went to jail, my love's out of song
I can't get up anymore, I'm lying in bed
I'm watching the day through a hole in my head
I turned myself down, I can hardly be heard
Now I'm without a heart, now I'm without a girl

I can't get up anymore (I can't get up anymore)
I can't get up anymore (I can't get up anymore)
I can't get up anymore (I can't get up anymore)
I can't get up anymore (I can't get up anymore)
I can't get up anymore

I can't get up anymore I'm a cold piece of toast
The doormat is full, the newspapers and post
There's a letter from you, but I'm growing a beard
It will never be read, cause I'm going so weird

Look what women can do -- i''ve bolted the door,
Now I'm losing a screw
All this hunger and trial won't achieve a result
But a nut can't keep tight without the help of a bolt

I can't get up anymore (I can't get up anymore)
I can't get up anymore (I can't get up anymore)
I can't get up anymore (I can't get up anymore)
I can't get up anymore (I can't get up anymore)
I won't get up anymore

I won't get up anymore (I won't get up anymore)
I can't get up anymore (I can't get up anymore)
I can't get up anymore (I can't get up anymore)
I can't get up anymore (won't get up anymore)
I won't get up anymore (I can't get up anymore)
I won't get up anymore, I can't get up anymore
