Courtney Barnett Debbie Downer Lyrics

Intro: E5 A5 D5 B5 }x2
Verse 1:
Tell me when you're getting bored and I'll leave
I'm not the one who put the chain around your feet
I'm sorry for all of my insecurities, but it's just a part of me
"Envy is thin because it bites but never eats"
That's what a nice old Spanish lady once told me
"Hey Debbie-Downer turn that frown upside down and just be happy"
Pre-Chorus 1:
I don't ask too much of you
It's true and I can't read your mind
Chorus 1:
Don't stop listening, I'm not finished yet
I'm not fishing for your compliments
Verse 2:
I'm growing older every time I blink my eyes
Boring, neurotic, everything that I despise
We had some lows, we had some mids, we had some highs
Sell me all your golden rules and I'll see
If that's the kind of person that I wanna be
If I'm not happy I'll be glad I kept receipts
Pre-Chorus 2:
I won't ask too much of you
I used to wonder what to wear
Last chorus:
Don't stop listening, I'm not finished yet
I'm not fishing for your compliments
