PLEASE NOT NOW

Rip the world right down the middle.

You’re the main attraction, dying to get a little reaction.

Talk about the state that we’re in.

I guess somebody somewhere must have asked your opinion.

 

I don’t want to hear you. I don’t want to hear you.

It’s not the time or place now. It’s not the time or place now.

Not now...not now...please not now.

 

You sit tight, pretending to listen.

But you’re only waiting to get the last word in.

Warning comes and puts up your guard.

It takes your hand and sleeps in the graveyard.

 

I don’t want to hear you. I don’t want to hear you.

It’s not the time or place now. It’s not the time or place now.

Not now...not now...please not now.

 

Count to ten. Then back to zero.

Tear me limb from limb like a hero.

Throw the words out just like stiletto.

Who’s to blame here? I say “I don’t know.”

Woah ho. Woah.

 

Cold air cutting into the warm room.

I go pop and you go ba-boom-boom.

Off you go. Now we continue.

But it’s not the same here without you.

 

I don’t want to hear you. I don’t want to hear you.

It’s not the time or place now. It’s not the time or place now.

Not now...not now...please not now.

 

Count to ten. Then back to zero.

Tear me limb from limb like a hero.

Throw the words out just like stiletto.

Who’s to blame here? I say “I don’t know.”

Woah ho. Woah.

 

Not now...not now...please not now.

Not now...not now...please not now.
