about

Brian Wilson came up with the line: “it takes a lot of help to stand on your own two feet”, or something like that. And he should know. It provoked the thought of all the people who have no choice.

lyrics

Joe's been standing on his own
Since he don't know when
No he don't know when

He's been happy on his own
Well maybe now and then
He thinks he needs a friend, Oh oh oh

Joe's not made like other men
He doesn't get it when
They laugh and joke with him

Life goes on whatever's said
But deep inside his head
He'd like to start again, Oh oh oh

There's one thing he's sure he knows
You need some help to stand alone
A hand through all the highs and lows
Before your hopes and dreams have flown

There's nothing more that he can say
That wouldn't be cliched
Nothing more to do but live and wait

Jo's been standing on her own
Since she don't know when
No she don't know when

She's been happy on her own
Well maybe now and then
Her thoughts turn to men, Oh oh oh

Jo's been thinking to herself
He's out there somewhere now
Someplace near somehow

One to scoop her off the shelf
Someone she'd allow
Into her here and now, Oh oh oh

There's one thing she'd like to know
How to find a love that grows
The one to shield her from her cares
One that answers all her prayers
