The Lyrics

Music and original lyrics by Tommy Boyce & Bobby HartParody lyrics by Al Hayfever

He---He never really got hurt; they say that the innocent walk with God,
He---He never really knew much; seems that was more of Adna's lot.

Why am I standing here, kissing Him while wishing He weren't here?
(HEY!) He never did me wrong.
(HEY!) He's better off alone.

He---He devoured all the sweet bread; took his share & more, what could I do?
He---He wouldn't touch the pork though; it seemed almost as though he knew.

Why am I standing here, kissing Him while wishing He weren't here?
(HEY!) He never did me wrong.
(HEY!) He's better off alone.

And now I know just why I keep Him hanging 'round, (hanging 'round)
I need someone to make me look better to the town (better to the town)
But I love Him! (love Him)
May need Him! (need Him)
Don't want Him! (want Him)
Yeah! (Yeah) Yeah! (Yeah) Yeah-yeah-yeah! Oh, He--- (Aw!)

(noodly organ)

Why am I standing here, kissing Him while wishing He weren't here?
(HEY!) He never did me wrong.
(HEY!) He's better off alone.

(He--) Why am I kissing Him? (He--) I should be missing him! (repeat to fade)

Based on the short story "He" by Katherine Anne Porter,Lyrics written from the mother's viewpoint.
