i'd really rather be alone 

i'd really rather be on my own 

what part of no don't you understand 

won't you just let go of my hand 

maybe it's just time you knew the truth 

don't think i'm coming off as rude 

i really like this solitude 

my company suits me just fine 

in fact i think it's quite divine 

maybe it's just time you knew the truth 



hey - i love to hear myself talk 

i'm my own favorite audience 

'cause i'm the funniest person i know 

if you were me i'm sure you'd agree 



i know you claim i'm being vague 

but I'm afraid it's not that way 

you can come over - don't stay long 

call me next week cause i'll be gone 

maybe it's just time you knew the truth 



hey - i love to hear myself talk 

i'm my own favorite audience 

'cause i'm the funniest person i know 

if you were me i'm sure you'd agree 



i'm building up my barricade 

i'd rather if you don't invade 

i'm sick of all this obligation 

do you really need more explanation 

maybe this time you will finally see that 



hey - i love to hear myself talk 

i'm my own favorite audience
