Lyrics It Won't Be Me - The Allergies, Andy Cooper

It Won't Be Me

And now ladies and gentlemen
What you’ve all been waiting for
Whoo
Come on, come on, come on
Hey!
Check it out now
Oh dear, here we go again
He’s walking over to me like I’m a no-friend
So I call out his name and shake hands
But I’m already crafting my escape plans
Cause this cat’s looking to start an argument
And he’ll be determined to make me a part of it
Some folks aren’t happy without conflict
But I’m not in the mood to suffer through nonsense
When he’s speaking his words
He just seeks to preterve
To the point that it tweaks every nerd
But you can’t be direct 'cause he might get upset
So you learn to discern and deflect
See I just wanna make this conversation end
If it gets him off my back you know I’m happy to pretend
And so I
Say whatever you want to hear
Cause we do better when I’m insincere
Now you might find someone to provoke
And poke 'till they’re ready to choke
But it won’t be me, nah
Said it won’t be me, nah
I gotta go!
Won’t be me
It won’t be me
It won’t be me
It won’t be me
It won’t be me
Mr. Cinical, loves to get critical
Dragging you into a fight that’s unwinnable
He’s a grand antagonist
Pulling out loose chap from his bag of tricks
There’s no doubt he want’s to spread venom
And if you get caught in his web you gotta let him
But the trick is to minimize static
It’s all about tact and being pragmatic
When he talks imma wait for a pause or a break
Check my watch, dry to dodge all the hate
Look he’s trying to prod, but I smile and I nod
Hey, I won’t deny, I’m a fraud
They say you shouldn’t lie and I don’t disagree
But if you can’t hear the truth then what’s the use of honesty?
And so I
Say whatever you want to hear
Cause we do better when I’m insincere
Now you might troll some horrible soul
That you can drag into your black hole
But it won’t be me, nah
Said it won’t be me, nah
Won’t be me
It won’t be me
It won’t be me
It won’t be me
It won’t be me
It won’t be me
It won’t be me
I gotta get on
Gotta get on, gotta get on
Gotta get on, gotta get on
Gotta get on, gotta get on
Gotta get on, gotta get on
Gotta get on, gotta get on
Gotta get on, gotta get on
Gotta get on, gotta get on
Gotta get on, gotta get on
It won’t be me
It won’t be me
It won’t be me (Not today)
It won’t be me (You better learn)
It won’t be me
It won’t be me
