Michael Penn - Walter Reed lyrics

I count the cases piled up high

For the 1:15.

For platform and for passerby

It's the same routine.

I'm ranting while I'm raving,

There's nothing here worth saving.

Tell me now, what more do you need?

Take me to Walter Reed tonight.

Baby I've lost the will for fighting

Over everything.

Well there's a few things I gotta say

And make no mistake, I'm mad

'Cause every good thing I've had

Abandoned me.

All I want to do is hide.

It's graduation day

And everything I learned inside

Didn't seem to pay.

I've had my fill of palm trees

And lighting up Grauman's Chinese.

Tell me now, what more do you need?

Take me to Walter Reed tonight.

Baby I've lost the will for fighting

Over everything

And there's a few things I gotta say.

Make no mistake, I'm mad.

'Cause every good thing I had

Abandoned me.

A sad and lonesome me.

I'm the walking wounded

And I'd say it to your face

But I can't find my place.

So tell me now, what more do you need?

Take me to Walter Reed tonight.

Baby I've lost the will for fighting

Over everything

And there's a few things I gotta say.

Make no mistake, I'm mad

'Cause every good thing I had

Abandoned me.

A sad and lonesome me.

A sad and lonesome me.

A sad and lonesome me.
