You wear your smile like it was going out of fashion
Dress to inflame but douse any ideas of passion
Carry your love in a trinket hanging round your throat
Always inviting, always exciting but I must not take off my coat
Well I'm tired of hanging around
I want somebody new
I'm not sure who I've got in mind
But I know that it's not you
That it's not you
You ask me questions that I never wanted to hear
I am the only one just until you finish this year
I would murder you if I had the alibi here in my hand
But you just laugh because you don't understand
That I'm tired of hanging around
I want somebody new
I'm not sure who I've got in mind
But I know that it's not you
It's not you
That it's not you
No, it's not you
It's not you
Dress to inflame but douse any ideas of passion
Carry your love in a trinket hanging round your throat
Always inviting, always exciting but I must not take off my coat
Well I'm tired of hanging around
I want somebody new
I'm not sure who I've got in mind
But I know that it's not you
That it's not you
You ask me questions that I never wanted to hear
I am the only one just until you finish this year
I would murder you if I had the alibi here in my hand
But you just laugh because you don't understand
That I'm tired of hanging around
I want somebody new
I'm not sure who I've got in mind
But I know that it's not you
It's not you
That it's not you
No, it's not you
It's not you
