Lyrics for Doth I Protest Too Much

I'm not threatened by every pair of legs you watch go by I don't cringe when you stare at women it's just a thing called guy I don't notice your sideways glances or where your loyalty lies I'm secure and out of me it's hard to get a rise I'm not jealous I don't get moved by much I'm not enraged Not insecure as such Not going insane Rational stays in touch Doth I protest too much I'm not tortured by how oft you're busy cuz I've got things to do I'm not disappointed about how you don't miss me cuz I don't need you to I'm not needy I don't get clingy much I am not scared I'm not afraid as such I'm not dependent Rock solid stays in touch Doth I protest too much So much energy to prove to you who I can't possibly be So much energy to prove to you I'm not who you hate for me to be I'm not saddened and I don't miss you cuz I have moved on too I'm not concerned about your new lover cuz I've a new lover too I'm not depressed I don't get down that much I'm not despondent I am not dark as such I'm never sad Keep chin up stays in touch Doth I protest too much I'm not jealous I don't get moved by much I'm not enraged Not insecure as such Not going insane Rational stays in touch Doth I protest too much
