lyrics to "that's not my name" by the ting tings


four letter word just to get my along
its a difficulty and i'm biting on my tounge
and i, i keep stallin, and keepin my together
people around gotta find somethin to say now

holdin back, every day the same
don't wanna be a loner, listen to me oh-no
i never say anything at all
but with nothin to consider they forget my name
(ame, ame, ame)

they call me hell
they call me stacy
they call me her
they call me jane
thats not my name
thats not my name
thats not my name 
thats not my... name

they call me quiet gal
but i'm a riot
maybe joelisa
always the same
thats not my name
thats not my name
thats not my name
thats not my... name

i miss the catch if they throw my the ball
i'm the last chick standing up against the wall
keep up, fallin, these heels they keep my borin
gettin glammed up and sittin on the fence now

so alone all the time at night
lock myself away, listen to me oh-no
although i'm dressed up, out and all
with everything considered, they forget my name
(ame, ame, ame)

overlaps the chorus this time:
(cuz now its in my head, and now its in my mind
call the preacher get some words and get some time
ya know i realize, i cannot emphasize
i sit around with just the promise all combined, and 
but baby can't you see, i need so desperately 
i stand there chokin like a book of one-liners  
instead i sit alone, the sound is monotone
i gotta get some so i gotta get some feelin) 

they call me hell
they call me stacy
they call me her
they call me jane
thats not my name
thats not my name
thats not my name 
thats not my... name

they call me quiet gal
but i'm a riot
maybe joelisa
always the same
thats not my name
thats not my name
thats not my name
thats not my... name

are you callin me darlin?
are you callin me bird?
are you callin me darlin?
are you callin me bird?

overlaps the chorus this time:
(are you callin me darlin?
are you callin me bird?
are you callin me darlin?
are you callin me bird?)

they call me hell
they call me stacy
they call me her
they call me jane
thats not my name
thats not my name
thats not my name
thats not my... name

they call me quiet gal
but i'm a riot
maybe joelisa
always the same
thats not my name
thats not my name
thats not my name 
thats not my... name

overlaps the chorus this time:
(cuz now its in my head, and now its in my mind

also overlaps the chorus this time:
(are you callin me darlin?
are you callin me bird?
are you callin me darlin?

they call me hell
they call me stacy
they call me her

thats not my... name

they call me quiet gal
but i'm a riot

overlaps the chorus this time, other one doesn't:
(cuz now its in my head, and now its in my mind
call the preacher get some words and get some time
ya know i realize, i cannot emphasize
i sit around with just the promise all combined, and
but baby can't you see, i need so desperately

cuz now its in my head, and now its in my mind
