She Don't Want Nobody Near

She don't want nobody near

But you can't get away from that

They appear and disappear

And they all get a string attached

Pretty soon they've got you hanging on the line

Pretty soon they're singing one by one, the same old rhyme

They say, "I'm alright, I just can't get home tonight"

She don't want nobody home

Cause it's a little too crowded then

But she don't want to be alone

So they just keep pouring in

Pretty soon they've got her headed for the door

She comes home to find that they're not hanging 'round no more

She says, "I'm alright, you just can't get home tonight"

Don't you wonder what she looks like in the light?

She says "I'm alright, I just can't get home tonight"

Pretty white-washed lies,

endless alibis

and reasons that need cleaning every night

Half a world away

You can't wash away the stain of the deceiving

And the things that you cannot believe

And well, she don't want no one around

Cause she don't want anybody to see

What she looks like when she's down

Cause that's a really sad place to be

Pretty soon she gets them crawling up the walls

Then she wonders why they beg her please to never call

She says "I'm ok, it's alright, hey look who's on TV tonight"

She says, "I'm alright, I just can't get home tonight"

Don't you wonder why it's dark outside at night?

She says, "I'm alright, I just can't get home tonight"
