I used to be so young
But now I'm ohh so beaten down
my friends are nowhere to be found
I find myself alone
Verse 2
I could have been someone
but now my name is just a ghost
my reputation is a joke
my eyes won't cry
Chorus
So could you pass me the needle
I've got a friend who's a guard
I need a shot a novocain
to numb my heart
could you pass me the bottle
make it something hard
cause there ain't enough novocain
to numb my broken heart
Verse 3
I tried to get ahead
but life has always been unjust
it's got my dreams into the dust
and i've my fun
Chorus
So could you pass me the needle
I've got a friend who's a guard
I need a shot a novocain
to numb my heart
could you pass me the bottle
make it something hard
cause there ain't enough novocain
to numb my broken heart
Verse 4
please could you spare a dime
i need to wet my aching throat
so i can say good bye to hope
it's sure been swell
Chorus
So could you pass me the needle
I've got a friend who's a guard
I need a shot a novocain
to numb my heart
could you pass me the bottle
make it something hard
cause there ain't enough novocain
to numb my broken heart
cause there ain't enough novocain
to numb my broken heart
cause there ain't enough novocain
to numb my broken heart
