I Need Somebody Lyrics

Creep Quasimodo
Yeah, I am a likely target
Sure, I'll play the part
Born with the face of an old DeSoto

If misery loves more, then why am I crying alone?
I'd make a better bore if there was someone to practice it on

I need somebody
I'm on the outside looking in
I need somebody
I cannot face my face again

Genetic drifter
Quarantined in my own dimension
"Hey look! It smokes! It drinks! It philosophizes!
It's loving this new attention"

We apologize, but the status quota's already met
If you reapply, you'll need a written excuse from your vet

I need somebody
I'm on the outside looking through
I need somebody
I never wanted this tattoo

She gave me water
She gave me her books to carry
Then the dream was gone
I'm back in my sanctuary

Nothing to confess, but I've got scars deeper than your minds
Nothing to declare but my love for all of mankind

I need somebody
I'm on the outside looking in
I need somebody
I cannot face my face again

I need somebody
I'm on the outside looking through
I need somebody
I never paid for this tattoo

The Rub of Love

Creep Quasimodo
Yeah, I am a likely target
Sure, I'll play the part
Born with the face of an old DeSoto

If misery loves more, then why am I crying alone?
I'd make a better bore if there was someone to practice it on

I need somebody
I'm on the outside looking in
I need somebody
I cannot face my face again

Genetic drifter 
Quarantined in my own dimension
"Hey look! It smokes! It drinks! It philosophizes!
It's loving this new attention"

We apologize, but the status quota's already met
If you reapply, you'll need a written excuse from your vet

I need somebody
I'm on the outside looking through
I need somebody
I never wanted this tattoo

She gave me water
She gave me her books to carry
Then the dream was gone
I'm back in my sanctuary

Nothing to confess, but I've got scars deeper than your minds
Nothing to declare but my love for all of mankind

I need somebody
I'm on the outside looking in
I need somebody
I cannot face my face again

I need somebody
I'm on the outside looking through
I need somebody
I never paid for this tattoo

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
