Lyrics

VERSE 1:
HE BITES HIS NAILS
HE CUTS DEEP TO FEEL
JESUS!
HE FIGHTS, HE FLAILS
BUT HE'S STILL UGLY
JESUS!

CHORUS:
OH SAY OH CAN YOU FIX ME
I'M BROKEN

VERSE 2:
HE TEARS THE SKIN
CUZ IT HIDES A SECRET
JESUS!
WHERE TO BEGIN
HE'S ANOTHER REJECT
JESUS!
SOMEWAY, SOMEHOW
HE'LL LOSE THE POUNDS
JESUS!

CHORUS:
OH SAY OH CAN YOU FIX ME
I'M BROKEN
OH SAY OH CAN YOU FIX ME
I'M BROKEN

VERSE 3:
HE WINDS THE TIME
ON HIS POCKET WATCH
JESUS!
SOME PEACE OF MIND
SHAME HE JUST CAN'T STOP
JESUS!
HE WON'T LET GO
HE'S AFRAID TO FALL
JESUS!
LISTEN TO SIS
THE PRETTY KNOW-IT-ALL
JESUS!

CHORUS:
OH SAY OH CAN YOU FIX ME
I'M BROKEN
OH SAY OH CAN YOU FIX ME
I'M BROKEN

VERSE 4:
NO TIME FOR TEARS
WHEN THE TRAIN DEPARTS
JESUS!
BUDWEISER FEARS
CASINO BROKEN HEARTS
JESUS!

CHORUS:
OH SAY OH CAN YOU FIX ME
I'M BROKEN
OH SAY OH CAN YOU FIX ME
I'M BROKEN

HE FIGHTS, HE FLAILS
BUT HE'S STILL UGLY
