i'm telling you a story now
of something that's wrong
this has been developing
since nineteen eighty-one

maybe she's alone
maybe she's alone
what can i do?
what can i do?

there's nothing
there's nothing
there's nothing i can do

if i'm a proper jewish boy
will her family love me?
can't stand to see her on the big stage
and know she's not thinking of me

maybe she'll be hearing this
but probably she won't (probably she won't)
possibly she has desires
but probably she don't (probably she don't)

there's nothing i can do
