Poor Twisted Me Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh, poor twisted me
Oh, poor twisted me
I feast on sympathy
I chew on suffer
Yeah, I chew on agony
Swallow whole the pain
Oh, it's too good to be
That all this misery
Just for, oh, poor twisted me, yeah
Ooh, yeah
Poor twisted me
[Verse 2]
Poor mistreated me
Poor mistreated me
I drown without a sea
Lungs fill with sorrow
Lungs fill with misery
Inhaling the deep, dark blue
Oh, woe is me
Such a burden to be
The poor mistreated me, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
To finally reach the shore, survive the storm
Now you're bare and cold, the sea was warm
So warm, you bathe your soul again
Baby, again, and again, and again, yeah, yeah
Oh, poor twisted me
Oh, poor twisted me
I feast on sympathy
I chew on suffer
Yeah, I chew on agony
Swallow whole the pain
Oh, it's too good to be
That all this misery
Just for, oh, poor twisted me, yeah
Ooh, yeah
Poor twisted me
[Verse 2]
Poor mistreated me
Poor mistreated me
I drown without a sea
Lungs fill with sorrow
Lungs fill with misery
Inhaling the deep, dark blue
Oh, woe is me
Such a burden to be
The poor mistreated me, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
To finally reach the shore, survive the storm
Now you're bare and cold, the sea was warm
So warm, you bathe your soul again
Baby, again, and again, and again, yeah, yeah
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Finally reached the shore, survived the storm
Now you're bare and cold, yeah, the sea was warm
So warm, you bathe your soul again
[Outro]
Good to feel my friend
Oh, woe is me
Such a burden to be
Oh, poor twisted me
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yo, poor twisted me
Oh, yo, yo, poor twisted me
[Chorus]
Finally reached the shore, survived the storm
Now you're bare and cold, yeah, the sea was warm
So warm, you bathe your soul again
[Outro]
Good to feel my friend
Oh, woe is me
Such a burden to be
Oh, poor twisted me
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yo, poor twisted me
Oh, yo, yo, poor twisted me

Genius Annotation
The song seems to be about a man who is in a horrible situation but is enjoying the sympathy and pity others give him, to the point where he over exaggerates his situation to get more of it.
