When you came back it was like a Chinese democracy
Each of them waiting on bended knee
Just primed to attack
Nothing like the thrill of the chase for the men
You can't go home again
When you get around
Just collecting the victims to hunt you down
They're embittered, elated to find themselves with a bitter sound
Everybody's thinking 'bout you, everybody's talking 'bout you
Everybody knows that you're a hit when you're single
Everybody's fighting for you, trying to look inviting
When you're dating you're all right
But you're a hit when you're single
How many hearts do you have to break until you're satisfied?
It's not like you haven't tried
You're falling apart, but it's cool when you speak
And you turn up the charm for the thing hanging on your arm
The ones that you've met
Haven't been suitable enough to suit you yet
Your proud reflection gazing back
At your crow's feet and cigarette
Everybody's watching for you, everybody's waiting for you
Everybody knows that you're a hit when you're single
Everyone's complaining 'cause their prospects are all draining
'Til you lose the ball and chain
'Cause you're a hit when you're single
I don't believe in your wonderment, just like I don't believe in you
But you've still got work to do
If I had to show you that there are still other ways to go
I'd spend three minutes telling you everything you already know
Everyone's on fire for you, trying to take you higher
You'll go to the greatest buyer, you're a hit when you're single
Everybody's thinking 'bout you, everybody's talking 'bout you
Everybody knows that you're a hit when you're single
