i don’t need you
i don’t need you half as much
as you need me
and i thank my lucky stars
that you have freed me
’cause i’m losing weight at last
losing weight and losing sleep
and losing my mind fast
i don’t need you
i don’t miss you in the way
i expected
i have time to clean the sink
and feel neglected
will i call you up i won’t
i forgot your number 6648
and i don’t need you
i don’t need you like my life depended on it
you’re gone you’re gone you’re gone
it only affects me in the hours
when i need you i need you
but i don’t want you
i do crosswords
and i’m weaving a basket
and i’d never take you back
unless you ask it
i don’t need you
i don’t need you like my life depended on it
you’re gone you’re gone you’re gone
it only affects me in the hours
when i need you i need you
but i don’t love you
i don’t love you like
with whom you are living
only twenty times as much
and all’s forgiven
if you’d come by today
so that i can have you near forever while i say
that i don’t need you i don’t need you
i don’t need you
i don’t need you
i don’t need you
i don’t need you
i don’t need you
need you
need you
need you
