I'm not in love with you
I'm a coward and a thief
I'm a shark with blunted teeth

I have somewhat mislead you
I've been known to bend the truth
I would lie in a confession booth

I'm not in a playful mood
Understatement for the year
Well I thought that I should make things clear

As I'm not in love with you
I make promises I can't keep
I've told your boss and I'll tell your niece

Drop me like a guillotine
Sever all ties
Just make it a clean sheet
Drop me like a guillotine
Rusted or sharp
Just make it a clean sweep

I'm only using you
Be my shoulder be my muse
But no PDAs or I'll act confused

Cos I'm not in love with you
We're not all bastards down at heart
It's just alterior motifs really get us hard

Drop me like a guillotine
Sever all ties
Just give me a clean sheet
Drop me like a guillotine
Rusted or sharp
Just make it a clean sweep

Drop me like a guillotine
Sever all ties
Just give me a clean sheet
Drop me like a guillotine
You work so hard and all the while you're forgetting me

While you work you're forgetting me

I'm not in love with you
I'm a coward and a thief
I write words that I should never sing
