I Don't Believe You

Artists : Magnetic Fields, The : I Don't Believe You

So you quote love unquote me;
well, stranger things have come to be,
but let's agree to disagree,
'cause I don't believe you.
I don't believe in you.
You tell me I'm not that cute.
It's truth or falsity is moot,
'cause honesty's not your strong suit
and I don't believe you.
I don't believe in you.
You tell me of what once was and all about Buck, Butch, and Buzz,
how they were not like me because...
But I don't believe you.
I don't believe in you.

I had a dream and you were in it.
The blue of your eyes was infinite.
You seemed to be in love with me,
which isn't very realistic.
You may sing me "They Were You,"
and I start crying halfway through,
but nothing else you say is true,
so I don't believe you.
I don't believe in you.

You may set your charm on stun
and say I'm delightful and fun,
but you say that to everyone.
Well, I don't believe you.
I don't believe in you.

So you're brilliant, gorgeous, and
ampersand after ampersand.
You think I just don't understand,
but I don't believe you.
