The Introvert Song Songtext

von Peter Mayer

People bug me when they interrupt me with calls
And unannounced visits
And on top of that when they chat about nothing at all
And I ask what is it?

I do have a lot to do
Can you return at two?
I will not be here by then
Just leave what you need me for
On a note on my door
So I can ignore it my friend

You may think it maddening when you ring my answering machine
And I m right there listening
But I d like to hire my own secretary who's mean
Someone who says things like

Mr. Mayer can t be reached
He is not in, you see
He s in a meeting till ten
I suppose I could take your name
Who are you anyway?
Please never call here again

If I see you before you see me in the hall
Then while you re not looking
I ll find the nearest bathroom and hide in the stall
Till I think the coast is clear

Then I will take a peak
And, if you re gone, I ll sneak
Back to my private abode
There in my world of one
I have a lot more fun
Because people bug me you know

I do have a lot to do
Can you return at two?
I will not be here by then
Just leave what you need me for
On a note on my door
So I can ignore it my friend

People bug me when they interrupt me with calls
And unannounced visits
And on top of that when they chat about nothing at all
And I ask what is it?
