Bert`s Lament — текст песни (Sesame Street)

I got this pain that I just can`t deal with
How I wish I had somebody to go and eat oatmeal with
Oh gee, I really need a friend to play with me
I`d give him friendship and affection
I`d even let him come and see my paper clip collection
Oh gee, I sure could use a friend to play with me
In line he`d gladly stand
To watch a marching band
Or buy some saddle shoes (laugh)
He`d worship argyle socks, collect them by the box
He`d help me chase these blues
My style would please him, more than a smidgeon
He`d say, It`s really nifty Bert, the way you dance the pigeon
Oh gee, I gotta find a friend to play with me
Won`t somebody hear my plea?
Wanna end this misery
I wish I had a friend to play with me
