Here Lyrics

[00:04.55] I guess for now you've got the last laugh
[00:09.78] I'm sorry if I seem uninterested
[00:13.57] Or I'm not listening, or I'm indifferent
[00:17.76] Truly I ain't got no business here
[00:21.57] But since my friends are here
[00:23.46] I just came to kick it
[00:25.42] But really I would rather be at home all by myself
[00:28.81] Not in this room with people who don't even care about my well being
[00:33.35] I don't dance, don't ask
[00:35.54] I don't need a boyfriend
[00:37.28] So you can go back, please enjoy your party
[00:40.95] I'll be here
[00:43.49] Somewhere in the corner under clouds of marijuana
[00:46.92] With this boy who's hollerin', I can hardly hear
[00:50.78] Over this music I don't listen to
[00:53.13] And I don't wanna get with you
[00:55.18] So tell my friends that I'll be over here
[00:58.35] Oh oh oh here, oh oh oh here
[01:02.03] Oh oh oh, I asked myself, "What am I doin' here?"
[01:06.07] Oh oh oh here, oh oh oh here
[01:10.27] And I can't wait 'til we can break up out of here
[01:13.25] Excuse me if I seem a little unimpressed with this
[01:16.86] An antisocial pessimist
[01:18.77] But usually I don't mess with this
[01:20.76] And I know you mean only the best and your
[01:24.76] Intentions aren't to bother me, but honestly I'd rather be
[01:28.72] Somewhere with my people, we can kick it and just listen to
[01:32.59] Some music with a message
[01:34.13] (Like we usually do)
[01:35.65] And we'll discuss our big dreams, how we plan to take over the planet
[01:40.54] So pardon my manners
[01:42.58] I hope you'll understand that I'll be here
[01:46.63] Not there in the kitchen
[01:48.42] With the girl who's always gossipin' about her friends
[01:51.44] Oh tell them I'll be here
[01:54.50] Right next to the boy who's throwin' up
[01:56.68] 'Cause he can't take what's in his cup no more
[01:59.27] Oh God, why am I here?
[02:01.42] Oh oh oh here, oh oh oh here
[02:05.33] Oh oh oh, I asked myself, "What am I doin' here?"
[02:09.22] Oh oh oh here, oh oh oh here
[02:13.61] And I can't wait 'til we can break up out of here
[02:16.29] Hours later congregatin' next to the refrigerator
[02:20.11] Some girl's talkin' 'bout a hater, she ain't got none
[02:24.03] How did it ever come to this?
[02:25.87] I should've never come to this
[02:28.05] So holla at me, I'll be in the car when you're done
[02:31.22] I'm stand-offish, don't want what you're offerin'
[02:34.82] And I'm done talkin', awfully sad it had to be that way
[02:40.38] So tell my people when they're ready that I'm ready
[02:43.59] And I'm standin' by the TV with my beanie low
[02:46.80] Yo, I'll be over here
[02:48.93] Oh oh oh here, oh oh oh here
[02:52.86] Oh oh oh, I asked myself, "What am I doin' here?"
[02:56.66] Oh oh oh here, oh oh oh here
[03:00.99] And I can't wait 'til we can break up out of here
[03:04.62] (Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh)
[03:07.34]
[03:12.28] (Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh)
[03:17.08]
