Lyrics Robyn Hitchcock

Robyn Hitchcock

I Am Not Me

When you take me

Into the field of glass and rain and then

You get me looking again

I say, "Caroline,

No need to spell it backwards

That's 'eniloraC'."

You say, "I'm not so sure

I am not me."

When you take me

Onto the lake of frozen storms, and then

You tell me as it gets cold

You get warm again

And then as you get warmer

You perform again

You heat me up and smile,

"I am not me."

So sha-la-la-la me

Oh, sha-la La-la me

When I take you

Into the chamber of the sun and then

You take me 'cause it's a deal

I say, "Caroline,

No need to be so naked

We've been introduced."

You say, "I'm not so sure.

I am not me."

So sha-la-la-la me

Oh, sha-la La-la me

Two, three, four

You say, "Get off my back,

You say, "Don't turn your back

You say, "What's your excuse?
