Charles Bukowski - On Loneliness lyrics

[Charles Bukowski - On Loneliness lyrics]

I've never been lonely i’ve been in
A room - I've felt
Suicidal i've been depressed i’ve felt awful
- awful beyond all
- but I never felt that one
Other person could enter that
Room and cure what was bothering
Meor that any number of
People could enter that room in other words
Loneliness is something I've never
Been bothered with because
I've always had this terrible
Itch for solitude it's being at a party
Or at a stadium full of people
Cheering for something, that I might
Feel loneliness i'll quote Ibsen
"The strongest men are
The most alone" I've never thought, "Well
Some beautiful blonde will come
In here and give me a fuck-job, rub my balls
And I'll feel
Good" No, that won't help you
Know the typical crowd, "Wow, It’s Friday
Night, what are you going to
Do? Just sit there?" Well, Yeah
Because there’s nothing out
There it's stupidity
Stupid people mingling with stupid people
Let them stupidify themselves i’ve never been
Bothered with the need to
Rush out into the night i hid in bars
Because I didn't want
To hide in factories that's all
Sorry for all the millions
But I've never been lonely i
Like myself i’m the best
Form of entertainment I have
Let's drink more wine!"
