I Don't Love Anyone

I don't love anyone

You're not listening

You're playing with something

You're playing with yourself

I don't love anyone

You're not listening even now

You're playing with someone

You're playing with someone else

And if there's one thing that I learned when I was still a child

It's to take a hiding

I don't love anything

Not even Christmas

Especially not that

I don't love anything

No, I don't love anyone

Well maybe my sister

And maybe my baby brother too

I don't love anyone else

And if there's one thing that I learned when I was still a child

It's to take a hiding

Yeah if there's one thing that I learned when I was still at school

It's to be alone

Instrumental

And if there's one thing that I learned when I was still a child

It's to take a hiding

Out in the street today

The kids are out playing, having fun

But I pass them by, I'm not a kid, no

And I don't love anyone

I met a man today

And he told me something pretty strange

There's always somebody saying something

He said The World

Is As Soft As Lace

But I don't love anyone...
