lyrics

Don’t wanna be lonely for the trillionth time
Don’t wanna linger at the party til the sunrise shines
But I can’t relate to most people I meet
and so I’m out here all alone trying to beat defeat

(chorus)
So I’m gonna put my heart into the public domain
Where anyone can do as they please with this refrain
A more traditional arrangement
Would skip this strange estrangement
And you’d take my heart out of the public domain

Now I know I’m unique & not Derivative
But the market is flooded & competitive
There’s no use scolding folks who sing my song
If it’s a set up to a night out where we’ll get along

(chorus)

Now you insist, it’s all fair use
then trademark every trouble that we went through
I used to think that you ruled my nights
But now I know I’ve always owned the rights

(chorus)

you can dance with me
without impunity
I waive my rights
When you turn out the lights
