Sitting in my lonely room every day
all my friends have gone away
I tried and tried and tried
to keep my baby satisfied
but she left me anyway

I was walking down the streets at night
killing time killing time
I’ve been trying every telephone in sight
but there’s always trouble on the line

I don’t wanna be the lonely boy tonight
I don’t wanna be the lonely boy tonight
I don’t wanna be the lonely boy
I don’t wanna be the lonely boy
tonight tonight tonight

oh ohh, oh ohh

Saturated by the media biz
my mind is ticking away, oh ohh
to do a string of anonymous hits
and the jingles of the day

I don’t wanna be the lonely boy tonight
I don’t wanna be the lonely boy tonight
I don’t wanna be the lonely boy
I don’t wanna be the lonely boy
tonight tonight tonight
tonight tonight tonight
tonight tonight tonight
tonight tonight tonight

du du dui dui du du duh
oh ohh
du du dui dui du du duh
oh ohh
du du dui dui du du duh
oh ohh
