I see your ball and chain
Got you in her web again
And as a spider spins
She's got you at her fingertips

And don't you know that it's better to be alone
Than to wish that you could be?

You know he'll raise that hand again
Better take your things and run
He loves you, so he says
Think he might love you to death

And don't you know that it's better to be alone
Than to wish that you could be?

What do you become
When you are all alone?
And what are you afraid of?
What is it? What is it?

What do you become?
What do you become?
What do you become?
What do you become?

You love the social life
You can be who you want to be
You hate to be alone
You can't stand the company

And don't you know that it's better to be alone
Than to wish that you could be?
And can't you see that it's better to be alone
Than to wish that you could be?
