I wish the telephone had not been invented Because I keep picking it up to say Stupid things to you The rain has stopped for now But I know it's not ended No sense in trying I cannot be protected No sense in worrying I can't be protected No sense in trying I cannot be protected Yeah Wonderful and sad How can you be so? Wonderful I wish that happiness could just be pretended The closest thing to that is A bottle of whiskey, dear I'd write a letter home But I don't know where to send it. No sense in trying I cannot be protected No sense in worrying I can't be protected No sense in trying I cannot be protected Yeah Wonderful and sad How can you be so? Wonderful
