I see your ball and chain Got you in her web again And as a spider spins She's got you at her fingertips And don't you know that it's better to be alone Than to wish that you could be? You know he'll raise that hand again Better take your things and run He loves you, so he says Think he might love you to death And don't you know that it's better to be alone Than to wish that you could be? What do you become When you are all alone? And what are you afraid of? What is it? What is it? What do you become? What do you become? What do you become? What do you become? You love the social life You can be who you want to be You hate to be alone You can't stand the company And don't you know that it's better to be alone Than to wish that you could be? And can't you see that it's better to be alone Than to wish that you could be?
