Lyrics for Debbie Downer

Tell me when you're getting bored and I'll leave I'm not the one who put the chain around your feet I'm sorry for all of my insecurities, but they're just a part of me Envy is thin because it bites but never eats That's what a nice old Spanish lady once told me "Hey, Debbie Downer, turn that frown upside down and just be happy" I don't ask too much of you It's true and I can't read your mind Don't stop listening, I'm not finished yet I'm not fishing for your compliments I'm growing older every time I blink my eyes Boring, neurotic, everything that I despise We had some lows, we had some mids, we had some highs Sell me all your golden rules and I'll see If that's the kind of person that I wanna be If I'm not happy I'll be glad I kept receipts I won't ask too much of you I used to wonder what you were Don't stop listening, I'm not finished yet (oh-oh-oh, oh) I'm not fishing for your compliments (oh-oh-oh, oh) Don't stop listening, I'm not finished yet (oh-oh-oh, oh) I'm not fishing for your compliments (oh-oh-oh, oh) Don't stop listening, I'm not finished yet (oh-oh-oh, oh) I'm not fishing for your compliments (oh-oh-oh, oh) Don't stop listening, I'm not finished yet (oh-oh-oh, oh) I'm not fishing for your compliments (oh-oh-oh, oh) Don't stop listening, I'm not finished Don't stop listening, I'm not finished Don't stop listening, I'm not finished I'm not finished
