"Not My Problem" lyrics

He left me for that other girl, and yeah, he left this T-shirt too
That finished baseball jersey from Bowie's tour in '72 (bummer)
And my best friend got a boyfriend and she finished for ten months
Not over so she's calling and expects me to pick up (uh-uh)
I wish that I could help them, I'm so sorry for their pain
(Boo hoo, good luck with that)

Not my problem, not my problem
What a twist of fate, they would have to wait
Not my problem, they just talk and talk and talk (blah, blah, blah)
La, da, da, da, da, not my problem

My brother used to rat me out, sit back and watch the fight
He wants me to be his alibi for where he was last Friday night (yeah, right)
My guitar player came begging for my 57 strap (I love it when they beg)
To impress this girl, but the last guitar I lent him, he never gave it back
(Ha-ha, keep on begging) I wish that I can help them
But there's only so much time (you do the math)

Not my problem, not my problem
What a twist of fate, they would have to wait
Not my problem, they just talk and talk and talk (blah, blah, blah, blah)

I don't wanna seem vicious
I don't wanna come off heartless
Callous, get this, they treat me like a doormat
I won't take that anymore (guess it's time they read the manual)

Not my problem, not my problem
They can save their breath and save themselves instead
Not my problem, it may not be PC, but it works for me
Not my problem, not my problem
What would they do if they were me?
Well, that could never be
Not my problem (not my problem)
They just talk and talk and talk (blah, blah, blah)
La, da, da, da, da, not my problem
