They Might Be Giants - You Don't Like Me lyrics

rate me

I know what you're thinking

I can read your mind

In your thoughts it's obvious

You don't like me

From across a crowded room

You can feel me staring

And you know that I can see

How it is

There's so much pleasure to be had

From Mr. Ian's secret plans

But you don't like me

'cause I can read your mind

I can see the future

Like it's in the past

You will never be my friend

You don't like me

I know what you're thinking

I can read your mind

In your thoughts it's obvious

You don't like me

You like cigarettes

Swimming laps

Potato chips, Battleship

Cats and Court TV

You like shadow puppets

Woody Harrelson

Reading in the bath

Nirvana and baseball caps

You can hear me talking

Right up till I stop

When I do, I'm gone to you

But you were always there

I can hear the friendly words

Of advice that I'd be offered

If I had a friend

To offer me advice

I'd be told to let it go

And that I care to much

But this is not about me

And you don't want to know

I can see the future

Like it's in the past

You will never be my friend

You don't like me

You like Bollywood

Snowmachines

Daguerreotypes, beauty contests

And cruise control

You like booster rockets

Cutting with a fork

Terminator 2

The morning and William Tell
