Wall of Voodoo was in my opinion  one of the most interesting bands of the 
1980's.  The guitarist (Bruce Moreland, I think) now plays in acclaimed Pretty &
Twisted, with Johnette Napolitano (of Concrete Blonde fame).  Stan Ridgway, 
singer/songwriter extraordinaire, is an accomplished solo artist and has a new 
band called Drywall.  Check out their new album, I forgot the name, but I hear 
it's reminiscent of Wall of Voodoo.

This song is an A-side from  "Call of the West", on IRS records, released 
1980-something.  It is on the same album with their smash hit, "Mexican Radio".
The guitar should be played with sharp, heavy distortion over a drum-machine 
sounding rhythm.  Listen to the song, the beat is quite simple.

(I haven't played this in a while, so I don't remember the exact key, but the 
progression can be transposed to any key, I suppose).

Strum eighth notes, medium tempo:

B B B B B B B B | G G G G G G G G | A A A A A A A A | A A A A A A A A |

               B
They don't want me
                G
They used to want me
                   A
But they don't want me

Anymore

I used to belong
Now I don't belong
It's not the same song
Anymore

We used to play games
We used to trade names
But we don't play games
Anymore

Cause' they don't want me
They used to want me
But they don't want me
Anymore

Chorus:
And now
I'm all
Alone
No one left
To (?word) (?word)
The (storm?)
And now
(?word) (?word) (?word) (?word)
(?word) (?word) (?word)
'Cause they don't want me.

Hey, I can't tell what Stan is singing in some of these places.  Any answers?
My opinions are not those of LMU's and LMU's are not those of my own (thank 
goodness).
