(Ahh, ahh-ahhh.)

I (boom-boom) don't have plans and schemes,
And I (boom-boom) don't have hopes and dreams,
I-I-I don't have anything,
Since I don't have you-oo-oo.

I (boom-boom) don't have fond desires,
And I (boom-boom) don't have happy hours,
I-I-I don't have anything,
Since I don't have you-oo-oo.

I don't have happiness, and I guess,
I never will ever again.
When you walked out on me,
In walked old misery,
And he's been here since then.

I-I (boom-boom) don't have love to share,
And I (boom-boom) don't have one who cares.
I-I-I don't have anything,
Since I don't have,
4ou-oo, you-oo, you-oo, you-oo,
You-oo, you-oo, you-oo, you-oo,
You-oo, you-oo, you-oo, you-oo,
You-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo.

4At the coda, Janet Vogel unleashes particularly, stratospherically-high
backup vocals. As with so many great moments in rock music, that ending
section was unplanned; originally they were going to fade out the track and
Vogel thought the tape was over, so she adlibbed the ending and it wound up
on the final single.
