Not Here

by A Paper Muse

/

about

A song for our times.

lyrics

Oooh, oooh, ooooh… not here
Oooh, oooh, ooooh… not here

I wanna be not in my house
I wanna be not here
I wanna be not in my house
I wanna be not here

I wanna go to a restaurant
I wanna sit with friends
I wanna go to the movies
I want isolation to end

I wanna go play frisbee
I wanna fly a kite
I wanna have a bonfire
Drink with friends all night

Oooh, oooh, ooooh… not here
Oooh, oooh, ooooh… not here

I’m out of sanitizer
Does this mask make me look fat?
I’m hoarding toilet paper
My cushions are all flat

A year of isolation
Has done my brain so wrong
I barely had the wherewithal
To write this goofy song

I wanna be not in my house
I wanna be not here
I wanna be not in my house
I wanna be not here

Oooh, oooh, ooooh… not here
Oooh, oooh, ooooh… not here
