Ms. Lonely
Ms. Lonely

I've got Bill
My one dollar bill
Grant left long ago
Am I running out of things
Or are things running out on me?
I suffer from insufficiency
I'm Ms. Penniless
I'm a Barbie
My Ken's in an army
Which I don't know
Am I running out on love
Or is love running out on me?
I suffer from insufficiency
I'm Ms. Loveless
I have people
Me, myself, and seagulls
On a deserted beach
Am I running out on friends
Or are friends running out on me?
I suffer from insufficiency
I'm Ms. Friendless
I have everything
All that loneliness brings
So much's out of reach
Friends, love, and money
I'm sufficient at insufficiency
Give me a penny, love, and a friend
Not on loan, for real not pretend
Am I running out of stuff?
Too little can not be enough
They run out on me
Call me Ms. Lonely.
