Win Affection - The Sidekicks

I felt insane on Lover’s Lane

Wanted a cry on my daily drive

To the Park of Roses

I opposed every petal picking nice guy in the grass

I felt absurd as a lovebird

Wanted to die on my morning fly

To your apartment window

Where I would show my muscle and my melody off

But no on likes a chatterbox

I cannot win, I cannot win

I cannot win, win affection

Win affection

I started parting my hair like his, that’s what I did

To subconsciously draw your attention

To the arbitrary aspect of attraction

And when at my teenage worst what I do

Is think of all the people in the world that aren’t you

Oh, there’s plenty, I usually only count to 20

Less dog with tail between its legs

More like my guts are on display

Food out on a tray, but I can’t eat it

Doesn’t that sound defeated

I cannot win, I cannot win

I cannot win, win affection

Win affection, win affection

I felt insane on Lover’s Lane
