Joey, baby, don't get crazy
I know you've heard it all before
So I don't say it anymore
I just stand by and let you fight your secret war

And though I used to wonder why
I used to cry till I was dry
Still, sometimes I get a strange pain inside
Oh, Joey, if you're hurtin', so am I

Joey, honey, I've got no money
And if I seem to be confused
I didn't mean to be with you
And when you said I scared you
Well, I guess you scared me too

But if it's love you're lookin' for
Well, I can give a little more
And if you're somewhеre drunk
And passed out on the floor

Oh, Joеy, I'm not angry anymore
Joey, I'm not angry anymore
Joey, I'm not angry anymore
