Here Lyrics By Alessia Cara

    i guess right now you’ve got the last laugh

    i’m sorry if i seem uninterested
    or i’m not listenin’ or i’m indifferent
    truly i ain’t got no business here
    but since my friends are here i just came to kick it
    but really i would rather be at home all by myself
    not in this room
    with people who don’t even care about my wellbeing
    i don’t dance don’t ask i don’t need a boyfriend
    so you can go back please enjoy your party
    i’ll be here
    somewhere in the corner
    under clouds of marijuana
    with this boy who’s hollering i can hardly hear
    over this music i don’t listen to
    and i don’t wanna get with you
    so tell my friends that i’ll be over here

    ohohoh here ohohoh here
    oh i ask myself what am i doin’ here
    ohohoh here ohohoh here
    and i can’t wait ’til we can break up out of here

    excuse me if i seem a little unimpressed with this
    an antisocial pessimist but usually i don’t mess with this
    and i know you mean only the best
    and your intentions aren’t to bother me
    but honestly i’d rather be
    somewhere with my people
    we can kick it and just listen to
    some music with a message like we usually do
    and we’ll discuss our big dreams
    how we plan to take over the planet
    so pardon my manners
    i hope you’ll understand that i’ll be here
    not there in the kitchen
    with the girl who’s always gossiping about her friends
    so tell them i’ll be here
    right next to the boy who’s throwin’ up
    cause he can’t take what’s in his cup no more
    oh god why am i here

    ohohoh here ohohoh here
    oh i ask myself what am i doin’ here
    ohohoh here ohohoh here
    and i can’t wait ’til we can break up out of here

    hours later congregatin’ next to the refrigerator
    some girl talkin’ ’bout her haters she ain’t got none
    how did it ever come to this i should’ve never come to this
    so holla at me i’ll be in the car when you’re done
    i’m standoffish don’t want what you’re offerin’
    and i’m done talkin’ awfully sad it had to be that way
    so tell my people when they’re ready that i’m ready
    and i’m standin’ by the tv with my beanie low
    yo i’ll be over here

    ohohoh here ohohoh here
    oh i ask myself what am i doin’ here
    ohohoh here ohohoh here
    and i can’t wait till we can break up out of here
