She Don't Want Nobody Near - Counting Crows

She can’t keepaway from them

Waits here and disappears

From the wrong things she intends (?)

Pretty soon they’ve got you hanging on a line

Pretty soon they string you one by one, same old rope

She says, «I'm alright, just take me home tonight»

She don’t want nobody home

cause it’s a little too crowded there

She don’t want to be alone

So they just keep pouring in Pretty soon they’ve got her heading for the door

She comes home to find they cannot hang around no more

She says, «I'm alright, just take me home tonight»

Pain won’t rationalize all those alibis

and reasons that keep creeping in tonight

You’re half a world away

But I just can’t wash away the stain of every single thing that you could not believe

oh well

She don’t want no one around

She don’t want anybody to see

what she looks like when she’s down

cause the truth’s a sad place to be Pretty soon she gets them crawling up the walls

Every Sunday morning the bed bleeds and you never saw?

She says, «I'm ok, it’s alright, hey look what do we want to do tonight?»

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