Go Home - Barenaked Ladies

Well, let me tell you if you’re feeling alone

Instead of whining and moaning

Just get on the phone

Tell her you’re coming home

If you need her, you should be there

And if you scream in your sleep

Or collapse in a heap

And spontaneously weep

Then you know you’re in deep

If you need her, you should be there

Go home

There’s nothing better than affairs of the heart

To make you feel so good then tear you apart

Make up your mind and stick it out or start again

You can’t imagine what an effort it takes

When you make a mistake

And you know in the wake

That a heart’s going to break

If you need her, you should be there

Well, if you’re flummoxed and flushed

And your heartbeat is rushed

Then get out of the slush

Tell your dog team to mush

If you need her, you should be there

Go home

If you think of her as Joan of Arc

She’s burning for you, get your car out of park

And if you think of her as Catherine the Great

Then you should be the horse to help her meet her fate

If you need her, you should be there

Go home

You can’t believe it, but it’s true

She’s given everything to you

Now take a moment to be sure

Before you give it all to her

Well, now you’re thinking that it’s over at last

All your woes in the past

But you’ve got to be fast

Put your foot on the gas

If you need her, you should be there

So now you’re out from under the gun

And it’s over and done

I won’t spoil all the fun

But if you ever wonder

She’ll be there if you need her

Go home

If you’re lucky to be one of the few

To find somebody who can tolerate you

Then I shouldn’t have to tell you again

Just pack your bags and get yourself on a plane

If you need her, you should be there

Go home

Come on, man

If you need her, you should be there

Go home

(???) Yeah!
