Crying For Attention

Can you hear me?

Baby can you hear me?

Who do you think I'm talking to?

Is there anyone else near me?

Precious things come in my path

Like new clothes for me to try on

In the end they make me laugh

In the beginning they are something to rely on

I'm not crying for attention baby

I'm not crying for attention baby

I'm not crying for attention I'm screaming to be heard

Everybody's listening but you

What's the matter?

Well there is no need to flatter

How do I get you to take notice?

Do I have to break and shatter?

When I feel that I am driven

Over the edge where it's all hidden

I hang my head and hit a table or a chair

I know my place I just can't stay there

It's your loving example I need to receive

I need more than a handful give it to me

Hey sometimes everybody has to be the centre of attraction

But I...I...I never expect any satisfaction

And I'm not crying I'm not crying I'm not crying

Not crying for attention

I'm not crying for attention

Baby I'm not crying for attention

Don't even say I am I'm not crying
