Lyrics
Bar Fly
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 don't know why you're talking to me
I don't know who you are
You just look like an actor to me
And you say that you play some guitar
I don't want to be talking to you
You won't get very far
Your good looks aren't a factor to me
You should know I'm solo in this bar
If I wanted
To talk to
A loser
I'd choose you
I'm not here to
Amuse you
I do just fine on my own
Like a barfly, I drink alone
If you're looking for sympathy here
Then I'm just not your girl
Don't you see that's how you'll never be
The most interesting man in the world
I don't know why you won't go away
You keep buzzing around
I'll admit when you're talking your shit
I can't say that I'm minding the sound
If you're wanting
A connection
Then get ready
For rejection
I'm not running for election
Tell me something I don't know
Or it's too bad I'm no good to go
I'm disconnected tonight
Out on this long lonely limb
I'm not sure what you expected tonight
Let's just say that your chances are slim
Your opinions are pinned on your sleeve
I don't care what you think
If you want to tell more of your story
Then why don't you buy me a drink?
Things are starting to heat up in here
Guess you've broken the ice
If it all keeps on trending this way
Then of course I'll be forced to be nice
If I wanted
To be stupid
I could do it
Without you
But there's something
About you
Your sweet persistence has shown
That you might get to take
This barfly home
