The Ting Tings - That's Not My Name lyrics

Four letter word just to get me along It's a difficulty and I'm bitin' on my tongue And I, I keep stallin' and keepin' it together People around gotta find somethin' to say now Holdin' back everyday the same Don't wanna be a loner Listen to me, oh no I never say anything at all But with nothin' to consider they forget my name (-ame, -ame, -ame) They call me hell They call me Stacey They call me her They call me Jane That's not my name That's not my name That's not my name That's not my name They call me quiet girl But I'm a riot Mary-Jo-Lisa Always the same That's not my name That's not my name That's not my name That's not my name I'll miss the catch if they throw me the ball I'm the last chick standing up against the wall Keep fa-fallin', these heels they keep me borin' Getting clamped up and sittin' on the fence now So alone all the time and I lock myself away Listen to me, I'm not And though I'm dressed up out and all With everything considered they forget my name (-ame, -ame, -ame) They call me hell They call me Stacey They call me her They call me Jane That's not my name That's not my name That's not my name That's not my name Counterpoint: This song was in my head and now it's in my mind Call it reach it get some words and get some timin' And though I realize, I cannot emphasize I'll stick around but just don't promise, nothing bindin' They call me quiet girl But I'm a riot Mary-Jo-Lisa Always the same That's not my name That's not my name That's not my name That's not my name Counterpoint: Baby can't you see, that you're so desperately A standin' joker like a vocal one-liner Instead of sing-a-long, this song is monotone I gotta get some soul I gotta get some feelin' Are you callin' me darlin'? Are you callin' me bird? Are you callin' me darlin'? Are you callin' me bird? They call me hell They call me Stacey They call me her They call me Jane That's not my name That's not my name That's not my name That's not my name They call me quiet girl But I'm a riot Mary-Jo-Lisa Always the same That's not my name That's not my name That's not my name That's not my name They call me hell They call me Stacey They call me her They call me Jane That's not my name That's not my name That's not my name That's not my name They call me quiet girl But I'm a riot Mary-Jo-Lisa Always the same That's not my name That's not my name That's not my name That's not my name They call me hell They call me Stacey They call me her They call me Jane That's not my name That's not my name That's not my name That's not my name So alone all the time and I lock myself away Though I'm dressed up out and all With everything considered they forget my name They call me quiet girl But I'm a riot Mary-Jo-Lisa Always the same That's not my name That's not my name That's not my name That's not my name
