[Verse 1]
There are a thousand love songs
Not for me, not for me
In the morning the birds sing
Not for me, not for me
There's hand in hand in the park
Without you I'm nothing
There's always some hope
Not for me, not for me
[Pre-Chorus]
Not for me, not for me
Stars don't shine for me
Not for me, not for me
Birds don't sing for me
[Chorus]
I write 'me my bitter manifesto
Only for me, only for me, only for me
I keep a list and you are set
Only for me, only for me, only for me
[Verse 2]
I'm crouching in my dark room
Hooked back, poor poet
Over a stack of leaves
Spitting an angry pamphlet
These drunks around me
Say I used to have sweet wine
Just more Campari-O
In a ratio of 3 to 1
[Pre-Chorus]
Not for me, not for me
Stars don't shine for me
Not for me, not for me
Birds don't sing for me
[Chorus]
I'm writing myself my bitter manifesto
Only for me, only for me, only for me
I keep a list and you're set
Only for me, only for me, only for me
[Verse 3]
There are reasons, there are intentions
There is fire, there is wine
I proclaim new goals
I will stay in the army alone
Not for me, not for me
But there is no salvation
Not for me, not for me
There is a place available and I'll take you with me
[Chorus]
I'm writing myself my bitter manifesto
Only for me, only for me, only for me
I keep a list and you're set
Only for me, just for me, just for me
