"This is the sassiest thing I've ever written," -Claire Kelly
lyrics
Don't you condescend
and please don't pretend
that you wanted to spend your hours and your flowers on me.
Don't you play it cool,
I wasn't crying wolf
And now you're acting like a fool
When you're coming and you're crying to me.
Now I see, clearer skies.
Thank you, for helping me realize
that I don't need you at all.
Don't you patronize,
I don't want your advice.
I don't need a flotation device
I can sail these seas on my own.
Now I see, clearer skies.
Thank you, for helping me realize
that I don't need you at all.
I hope you sleep better at night, cause I'll be sleeping on my flight
Out of this town, out of this house, I will not drown.
Cause I don't need you at all.
Don't you condescend and don't you pretend,
that you wanted to spend your hours and your flowers on me.
Now I see, clearer skies.
Thank you, for helping me realize
that I don't need you at all.
