I Wanna Be Around

I wanna be around to pick up the pieces When somebody breaks your heart Some somebody twice as smart as I A somebody who will swear to be true As you used to do with me Who'll leave you to learn That mis'ry loves company, wait and see I mean, I wanna be around to see how he does it When he breaks your heart to bits Let's see if the puzzle fits so fine And that's when I'll discover that revenge is sweet As I sit there applaudin' from a front-row seat When somebody breaks your heart Like you, like you broke mine Cale duets with Jools Holland on hi --- I Wanna Be Around - John Cale, Jools Holland and Jools Holland & His Rhythm & Blues Orchestra
