[Opening]
[Am]
I’m [Am]sorry if I [Dm]seem uninterested, or [Am]I’m not listening, or [E]I’m indifferent
[Am]Truly I ain’t [Dm]got no business here, but [Am]since my friends are here, [E]I just came to kick it
But [Am]really I would rather be at [Dm]home all by myself
Not in this [Am]room with people who don’t even [E]care about my well being
I [Am]don’t dance, don’t ask, [Dm]I don’t need a boyfriend, so [Am]you can, go back, [E]please enjoy your party
I’ll be [Am]here, [Dm]Somewhere in the corner, under [Am]clouds of marijuana, With this [E]boy who’s hollering
I can hardly [Am]hear, Over this [Dm]music I don’t listen to
And I [Am]don’t wanna get with you, So [E]tell my friends that I’ll be over [Am]here
[chorus]
Oh oh oh [Dm]here, oh oh oh [Am]here, oh I [E]asked myself, what am I doing [Am]here?
Oh oh oh [Dm]here, oh oh oh [Am]here, and I can’t [E]wait ’til we can break up out of here
[section 2]
[Am]Excuse me if I seem a [Dm]little unimpressed with this
An [Am]anti social pessimist, but [E]usually I don’t mess with this
And [Am]I know you mean [Dm]only the best and your
[Am]Intentions aren’t to bother me, But [E]honestly I’d rather be
[Am]Somewhere with my people, We can [Dm]kick it and just listen to
Some [Am]music with a message, like we [E]usually do
And we’ll discuss our [Am]big dreams, How we plan to [Dm]take over the planet
So [Am]pardon my manners, I [E]hope you’ll understand that I’ll be [Am]here
[Dm]Not there in the kitchen, With the [Am]girl who’s always gossiping [E]about her friends
So tell them I’ll be [Am]here, [Dm]Right next to the boy who’s throwing [Am]up
Cause he can’t take what’s in his [E]cup no more, oh God why am I [Am]here?
[chorus]
Oh oh oh [Dm]here, oh oh oh [Am]here, oh I [E]asked myself, what am I doing [Am]here?
Oh oh oh [Dm]here, oh oh oh [Am]here, and I can’t [E]wait ’til we can break up out of here
[section 3]
[Dm]Hours later congregating [Am]next to the refrigerator, [E]some girl talking ’bout her haters, she ain’t got none
How [Dm]did it ever come to this? I [Am]should’ve never come to this
So [E]holla at me, I’ll be in the car when you’re done, I’m stand offish, don’t want what you’re [Dm]offering
And I’m done [Am]talking, awfully [E]sad it had to be that [Am]way
So tell my people when they’re [Dm]ready that I’m ready, and I’m [Am]standing by the TV with my [E]beanie low
Yo I’ll be over [Am]here
[Closing]
Oh oh oh [Dm]here, oh oh oh [Am]here, oh I [E]asked myself, what am I doing [Am]here?
Oh oh oh [Dm]here, oh oh oh [Am]here, and I can’t [E]wait ’til we can break up out of here
If you’re [Dm]ready then I’m ready yeah [Am]yeah, if you’re [E]ready then I’m ready yeah [Am]yeah
