How Soon Is Now? Lyrics

I am the son 
And the heir
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and the heir
Of nothing in particular

You shut your mouth 
How can you say 
I go about things the wrong way
I am Human and I need to be loved 
Just like everybody else does

There's a club, if you like to go 
You could meet somebody who really loves you
So you go, and you stand on your own
And you leave on your own 
And you go home, and you cry 
And you want to die

When you say it's gonna happen "now"
Well, when exactly do you mean?
See I've already waited too long 
And all my hope is gone
