I don't like you

from People never seem to amaze me by Sven Curth

/

about

Not about any particular person, this is just sort of a song idea that wrote itself. The only people I dislike this much are politicians. And self-proclaimed non-politicians that incredibly manage to attain public office.

lyrics

I don't like you

I'm gonna try to put it words
that you could easily understand
I wouldn't want to see your confused expression
or anything to get out of hand
It's important you remember one thing fundamentally...
I really just don't like you so please stay the hell away from me
I'd say that you were one of a kind
but that'd be credit where it's really not due
In retrospect I'm really just bored to tears
by everything that interests you
I wonder if you've ever had a thought that was your own
Or if, as I suspect, your mind's a vacant hole when you're alone

When you go away it gives me cause to celebrate
in case it's unclear what I'm saying it's:
Go away please, I don't like you
When you're gone I can appreciate each single moment
I've indulged in here without you
and soon I'll forget about you

It's not that you were really that bad
Nor, certainly, that you were that good
You just managed to divert far too much of my time
from doing things I probably should
I've already spent too much time trying to explain this point of view;
It really doesn't matter - long as I stay far away from you...

When I step back and see the humor in it all
I wonder if I shouldn't try to be accommodating
But when I think back on problems I've already solved -
it seems instead of swimming upstream -
I've been better served by relocating

When you go away it gives me cause to celebrate
in case it's unclear what I'm saying it's:
Go away please, I don't like you
When you're gone I can appreciate each single moment
I've indulged in here without you
and soon I'll forget about you
