Walter Reed Lyrics - Michael Penn

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.
