That's Not My Name

The Ting Tings

  S1:
  Four-letter word just to get me along 

  It's a difficulty and I'm bitin' on my tongue 

  And I, I keep stallin', not keepin' it together 

  People around gotta find somethin' to say now 

  Holdin' back, every day the same 

  Don't wanna be a loner, listen to me, oh no 

  I never say anything at all 

  But with nothing to consider 

  They forget my name-ame-ame-ame

  R1:
  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 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

  S2:
  I miss the catch if they throw me the ball 

  I'm the last drip standin' up against the wall 

  Keep fa-falling, these heels that keep me borin' 

  Gettin' clamped up and sittin' on the fence now 

  So alone all the time and I 

  Lock myself away, listen to me, oh no 

  And though I'm dressed up, out and all 

  With everything considered 

  They forget my name-ame-ame-ame

  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 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

  Are you 

  Calling me 

  "Darlin'"?

  Are you 

  Calling me  

  "Bird"?

  That's not my name, that's not my name

  D1:
  First, it was in my head and now it's in my mind 

  Call a preacher, get some words and get some time in 

  And though I realised I cannot emphasise 

  Sittin' 'round with just a promise, nothing binding 

  However, can't you see? Living so desperately 

  A standing joke that I provoke a one-liner 

  Instead of sing-a-long, this song is monotone 

  I gotta get some soul, I gotta get some feeling
