[Intro]

You ask me what's it like now

I've got no woman

Don't ask

You ask me how's it feel to be alone

You've got no one

Don't ask

I'll tell you what's the story

Who's the judge and who's the jury?

The past


[Verse 1]

Don't ask me what it's like to be alone at night

I hear a tapping on the wall

(I hear you knockin' but ya)

I calm myself by leaving on the bathroom light

I know there's no one out there

But that don't really help at all


[Pre-Chorus]

So tell me what's it like now

You've got nobody

Don't ask


[Chorus]

Who looks after your health?

I do it myself

How do you survive?

I'm staying alive

Who looks after your home?

I do it on my own

And how do you sleep?

I sleep alone


[Verse 2]

Nobody told me that I had to live this way

Yea I could really have a ball

(You keep a-knockin' but ya)

But if I can't have you I'd rather stay this way

And live in hope that maybe

One day you'll take the time to call


[Pre-Chorus]

So tell me what's it like now

You've got no woman

Don't ask


[Chorus]

Who looks after your health?

I do it myself

How do you survive?

I'm staying alive

Who looks after your home?

I do it on my own

And how do you sleep?

Well I sleep alone


[Outro]

I'll tell you what it's like now

I got no woman

Don't ask
