I really don't want to sing
this song you've written for me.
Why don't you leave me alone?
Why can't you just leave me be?
I know you've spent countless hours
carefully arranging each note
into a pattern which you can be proud of,
into a song for which you can gloat.
But the thing is you've never asked me
if I wanted to sing this song,
if I would agree to the lyrics you wrote,
you just expect me to sing along.
I'm not saying the song is bad,
in fact I hope it works out.
I hope you find somebody else
who can sing what you write about.
But this really isn't my song,
nor is it my cup to drink,.
I'm sorry if I disappoint you,
but your song is just not for me.
