Don't do me any favors

matter of fact why don't you

do yourself a few



your presence ain't nobody's blessing

I've got plenty of other things

I could do



oh no, not another excuse

your tired silly games

for me are just no use



and now it's plain for me to see

you're with somebody

that you don't want to be



so won't you

please please me like you want to

not like you have to

or won't you just go on and leave me

leaving me is the least that you could do



you could have spared me

so much misery

and told me you just wanted

a friend



believe me there is a difference

when you mean it

and when you pretend



or was I just your habit

cause I know a habit

is a hard thing to break



but won't you spare me

a little mercy

there's only so much

that I can take



so won't you

please please me like you want to

not like you have to

or won't you just go on and leave me

leaving me is the least that you could do
