lyrics

She:
Hello Mister
I don't love you
I like you though
But stop pestering me
Stop pestering me
'Cause that's as far it goes
You may say I'm being harsh
But it's harsh to be fair
It's fair to tell you now
You'll get nowhere
If you can't be satisfied as my best friend
Then you'd better get prepared for the end.

Hey now mister
I don't love you
As I told you before
So stop pestering me
Stop pestering me
Or I won't like you no more
You may say I'm being cruel
But it's cruel to be kind
It's fair to tell you now
I won't change my mind
If you can't be satisfied as a confidant
You'd better be prepared for not getting what you want

He:
How could i leave it at that
When my love is true and strong
And when I fall in love
It only happens once
Would Lochinvar or Don Quixote
Give up so easily?
I have to strive forever
To win your love with poetry

She:
Hey now Mister
I don't want you
To take this the wrong way
But stop pestering me
Stop pestering me
I wish you'd go away
You're starting to obliterate our easy rapport
You're making me uncomfortable and being a bore
It's almost like talking to a big brick wall
Perhaps I'd say it better by saying nothing at all to you
