There's something wrong with me, people don't respect me
Don't seem to like me no, they want to hurt me so
There's something wrong with me, I can't let no-one see
I pretend I'm ok until I find my way
Cos if they see that I'm weak I know what they'll do to me
They'll only hurt me and I know that they will take her from me
I mustn't let them know, I mustn't let it show
They'll take the piss out of me or talk down to me
And if she sees she'll know, cos If I'm weak she'll go
Well I know what I'll do I'm gonna be someone
And then no-one can put me down cos I will be number one
'cause this is alright, I like this, alright, how's it going? what's happening?
Yeah!, no I'm alright, Is this it? It's empty man, there's nothing here
And They will all want from me, and everyone looks at me
But they wouldn't know my leave or even speak to me
And now all these people are depending on me and that man who was my friend
I think he's robbing from me
I don't know where to go, I don't know who is friend or foe
I can't handle this, I don't want to handle this, what the fuck happened?

Dexys Midnight Runners

Dexys Midnight Runners (currently officially Dexys, their common nickname; sometimes styled with and sometimes without an apostrophe) are an English pop band with soul influences, who achieved their major success in the early to mid-1980s. They are best known in the UK for their songs “Come On Eileen” and “Geno”, both of which peaked at No. 1 on the UK Singles Chart, as well as six other top-20 singles.

During the late 1970s and early 1980s, Dexys went through numerous personnel changes over the course of three albums and thirteen singles, with only singer/songwriter/co-founder Kevin Rowland remaining in the band through all of the transitions and only Rowland and “Big” Jim Paterson (trombone) appearing on all of the albums. By 1985, the band consisted only of Rowland and long-standing members Helen O'Hara (violin) and Billy Adams (guitar). The band broke up in 1987, with Rowland becoming a solo artist. After two failed restart attempts, Dexys was reformed by Rowland in 2003 with new members, as well as a few returning members from the band’s original lineup (known as Dexys Mark I). Dexys released their fourth album in 2012 and a fifth followed in 2016.
