    Dm/B       Dm/A#
I'm sorry if I seem uninterested
   Dm                     Dm/C
Or I'm not listenin', or, I'm indifferent
Dm/B          Dm/A#
Truly I ain't got no business here
    Dm                         Dm/C
But since my friends are here, I just came to kick it
    Dm/B                        Dm/A#
But really I would rather be at home all by myself
            Dm
Not in this room
                          Dm/C
With people who don't even care about my well-being
  Dm/B                    Dm/A#
I don't dance, don't ask, I don't need a boyfriend
   Dm                Dm/C
So you can, go back, please enjoy your party
        Dm/B
I'll be here
Dm/A#
Somewhere in the corner
      Dm
Under clouds of marijuana
          Dm/C
With this boy who's hollering
             Dm/B
I can hardly hear
          Dm/A#
Over this music I don't listen to
    Dm
And I don't wanna get with you
   Dm/C                              Dm/B
So tell my friends that I'll be over here

Chorus:
         Dm/A#          Dm
Oh-oh-oh here, oh-oh-oh here
     Dm/C                        Dm/B
Oh I ask myself, what am I doin' here?
         Dm/A#          Dm
Oh-oh-oh here, oh-oh-oh here
            Dm/C                             Dm/B
And I can't wait 'til we can break up out of here

Excuse me if I seem a little unimpressed with this
An anti-social pessimist, but usually I don't mess with this
And I know you mean only the best
And your intentions aren't to bother me, but honestly, I'd rather be
Somewhere with my people, we can kick it and just listen to
Some music with a message, like we usually do
And we'll discuss our big dreams, how we plan to take over the planet
So, pardon my manners, I hope you'll understand that I'll be here
Not there in the kitchen
With the girl who's always gossipin' about her friends
So, tell them I'll be here
Right next to the boy who's throwin' up
'Cause he can't take what's in his cup no more
Oh God, why am I here?

Chorus

                          Dm/A#
Hours later, congregatin' next to the refrigerator
Dm                                  Dm/C
Some girl talkin' 'bout her haters, she ain't got none
    Dm/B                        Dm/A#
How did it ever come to this? I shoulda never come to this
   Dm                          Dm/C
So holla at me, I'll be in the car when you're done
          Dm/B                           Dm/A#
I'm stand-offish, don't want what you're offerin'
             Dm               Dm/C                   Dm/B
And I'm done talkin', awfully sad it had to be that way
                               Dm/A#
So tell my people when they're ready that I'm ready
        Dm                         Dm/C
And I'm standin' by the TV with my beanie low
                Dm/B
Yo I'll be over here

Chorus:
Oh-oh-oh here, oh-oh-oh here
Oh-oh-oh, I ask myself, what am I doin' here?
Oh-oh-oh here, oh-oh-oh here
And I can't wait till we can break up out of here
