I'm a loser

 I'm a loser

 

 

I'm a loser I'm a loser And I'm not what I appear to be

Of all the votes I have won or have lost There is one vote I should never have crossed She was a girl in a million, my friend I should have known she would win in the end

I'm a loser And I lost to someone who's better than me I'm a loser And I'm not what I appear to be

Although I laugh and I act like a clown Beneath this mask I am wearing a frown My tears are falling like rain from the sky Is it for her or myself that I cry?

I'm a loser And I lost to someone who's better than me I'm a loser And I'm not what I appear to be

What have I done to deserve such a fate? I realize I have left it too late And so it's true, pride comes before a fall I'm telling you so that you won't lose all

I'm a loser And I lost to someone who's better than me I'm a loser And I'm not what I appear to be

"I'm A Loser" lyrics

"I'm A Loser"

I'm a loser
I'm a loser
And I'm not what I appear to be

Of all the love I have won or have lost
There is one love I should never have crossed
She was a girl in a million, my friend
I should have known she would win in the end

I'm a loser
And I lost someone who's near to me
I'm a loser
And I'm not what I appear to be

Although I laugh and I act like a clown
Beneath this mask I am wearing a frown
My tears are falling like rain from the sky
Is it for her or myself that I cry

I'm a loser
And I lost someone who's near to me
I'm a loser
And I'm not what I appear to be

What have I done to deserve such a fate
I realize I have left it too late
And so it's true, pride comes before a fall
I'm telling you so that you won't lose all

I'm a loser
And I lost someone who's near to me
I'm a loser
And I'm not what I appear to be


Writer(s): Paul McCartney, John Lennon
John Lennon said in an interview in 1980 about this song, "Me in my Dylan period. Part of me suspects I'm a loser and part of me thinks I'm God Almighty."
Paul McCartney said, "We used to listen to quite a lot of country and western songs and they are all about sadness and 'I lost my truck' so it was quite acceptable to sing 'I'm a loser'."
This song was performed twice before the release: on BBC Radio and for a British edition of US music TV show "Shindig!" that was broadcasted in the USA, but not in Britain.
