i'd really rather be alone
i'd really rather be on my own
what part of no don't you understand
won't you just let go of my hand
maybe it's just time you knew the truth
don't think i'm coming off as rude
i really like this solitude
my company suits me just fine
in fact i think it's quite divine
maybe it's just time you knew the truth

hey - i love to hear myself talk
i'm my own favorite audience
'cause i'm the funniest person i know
if you were me i'm sure you'd agree

i know you claim i'm being vague
but I'm afraid it's not that way
you can come over - don't stay long
call me next week cause i'll be gone
maybe it's just time you knew the truth

hey - i love to hear myself talk
i'm my own favorite audience
'cause i'm the funniest person i know
if you were me i'm sure you'd agree

i'm building up my barricade
i'd rather if you don't invade
i'm sick of all this obligation
do you really need more explanation
maybe this time you will finally see that

hey - i love to hear myself talk
i'm my own favorite audience
'cause i'm the funniest person i know
if you were me i'm sure you'd agree
