Lyrics

Here

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

(I guess right now you've got the last laugh)

I'm sorry if I seem uninterested

Or I'm not listenin' or I'm indifferent

Truly I ain't got no business here

But since my friends are here, I just came to kick it

But really I would rather be at home all by myself

Not in this room

With people who don't even care about my well-being

I don't dance, don't ask, I don't need a boyfriend

So you can go back, please, enjoy your party

I'll be here

Somewhere in the corner

Under clouds of marijuana

With this boy who's hollering I can hardly hear

Over this music I don't listen to

And I don't wanna get with you

So tell my friends that I'll be over here

Oh, oh, oh here, oh, oh, oh here

Oh I ask myself, what am I doin' here?

Oh, oh, oh here, oh, oh, oh here

And I can't wait 'til we can break up out of here

Excuse me if I seem a little unimpressed with this

An anti-social pessimist, but usually I don't mess with this

And I know you mean only the best

And your intentions aren't to bother me

But honestly I'd rather be

Somewhere with my people

We can kick it and just listen to

Some music with a message, like we usually do

And we'll discuss our big dreams

How we plan to take over the planet

So pardon my manners

I hope you'll understand that I'll be here

Not there in the kitchen

With the girl who's always gossiping about her friends

So tell them I'll be here

Right next to the boy who's throwin' up

'Cause he can't take what's in his cup no more

Oh God, why am I here?

Oh, oh, oh here, oh, oh, oh here

Oh I ask myself, what am I doin' here?

Oh, oh, oh here, oh, oh, oh here

And I can't wait 'til we can break up out of here

Hours later congregatin' next to the refrigerator

Some girl's talkin' 'bout her haters, she ain't got none

How did it ever come to this? I should've never come to this

So holla at me, I'll be in the car when you're done

I'm stand-offish, don't want what you're offerin'

And I'm done talkin', awfully sad it had to be that way

So tell my people when they're ready that I'm ready

And I'm standin' by the TV with my beanie low

Yo, I'll be over here

Oh, oh, oh here, oh, oh, oh here

Oh I ask myself, what am I doin' here?

Oh, oh, oh here, oh, oh, oh here

And I can't wait 'til we can break up out of here
