Lyrics:
One inch man, lonely soul
Two inch man, give me more
Five steps back, gettin' back
Three steps north get 'em up
Always so lonely, lonely, lonely
Always so lonely, lonely, lonely
One inch man, lonely soul, yeah
Two inch man, give me more
Always so lonely, lonely, lonely
One inch man he's so lonely
Oh, he's breathin'
Damn my fire for you, do you really wanna fuck me?
Love my time for you, do you really wanna hold me?
And my time for you, do you really wanna hold me?
Love my time for you, do you really wanna...
Always so lonely
One inch man he's breathin'
Always so lonely, lonely, lonely
One inch man he's so lonely
Oh, he's breathin'
One inch man he's so lonely, oh
