I don't wanna be, be in your posse girl I don't wanna be all caught up in your social scene I don't wanna be, be in your front seat girl I know I'm your recruit But I ain't gonna follow suit You got morrissey and joy division on cd But I don't go for them I can't move to that beat I like Marvin Gaye and gospel music My soul and my heart But you call it noise You always spoil my favourite parts Don't wanna be, be in your posse girl I don't wanna Be caught in your social machine I don't wanna be, be in your posse girl It's not my scene I don't need your company You're skipping school 'cause it's cool But it's not for me I learned to dream I learned to read at this old academy You're out make every man Your fleeting dream But I'm a one-man woman I'm all down with monogamy You cuss and curse So they think That you're rough and tough But I like Shakespeare And I find "damm it" heavy enough You like new age All the rage, philosophy But I don't read my palms I read the psalms They speak to me Don't wanna be, be in your posse girl I don't wanna Be caught in your social machine Don't wanna be, be in your posse girl It's not my scene, all of the aristocracy It's not you Maybe I'm just to pedantic I'm a self-confessed Idealist and romantic You say 'join the gang Be my yang and I'll be your yin' But try as I might I'm not your type, I don't fit in I don't wanna be, be in your posse girl It's not your fault And I send my apologies I don't wanna be, be in your posse girl I don't wanna be all caught up in your social scene I don't wanna be, be in your posse girl You're a trip But I don't flip on your ecstasy I don't wanna be, be in your posse girl Trust me, you'll see, we're yin and yang That's my prophecy Yin and yang (that's my prophecy) Yin and yang
