Lyrics

[Verse 1]
So you quote love unquote me
Well, stranger things have come to be
But let's agree to disagree
'Cause I don't believe you
I don't believe you
[Verse 2]
You tell me I'm not not cute
It's truth or falsity is moot
'Cause honesty's not your strong suit
And I don't believe you
I don't believe you
[Verse 3]
You tell me of what once was
And all about Buck, Butch, and Buzz
How they were not like me because
But I don't believe you
I don't believe you
[Verse 4]
I had a dream and you were in it
The blue of your eyes was infinite
You seemed to be
In love with me
Which isn't very realistic
[Verse 5]
You may sing me They Were You
And I start crying halfway through
But nothing else you say is true
So I don't believe you
I don't believe you
[Verse 6]
You may set your charm on stun
And say I'm delightful and fun
But you say that to everyone
Well, I don't believe you
I don't believe you
[Verse 7]
So you're brilliant, gorgeous, and
Ampersand after ampersand
You think I just don't understand
But I don't believe you
I don't believe you
I don't believe you
I don't believe you
