That's Not My Name - Short Edit

Four-letter word just to get me along
It's a difficulty and I'm bitin' on my tongue
And I, I keep stallin', not keepin' it 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 nothing to consider, they forget my name-ame-ame-ame

They call me "hell"
They call me Stacey
They call me "her"
They call me Jane
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name

They call me "quiet"
But I'm a riot
Mary Jo, Lisa
Always the same
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name

I miss the catch if they throw me the ball
I'm the last drip standing up against the wall
Keep fa-fallin', these heels that keep me borin'
Getting clamped up and sittin' on the fence now

So alone all the time and I
Lock myself away, listen to me, oh, no
And though I'm dressed up, out and all
With everything considered, they forget my name-ame-ame-ame

They call me "hell" (first, it was in my head)
They call me Stacey (and now it's in my mind)
They call me "her" (call a preacher, get some words)
They call me Jane (and get some time in)
That's not my name (and though I realised)
That's not my name (I cannot emphasise)
That's not my name (sittin' 'round with just a promise)
That's not my name (nothing binding)

They call me "quiet" (however, can't you see?)
But I'm a riot (living so desperately)
Mary Jo, Lisa (a standing joke)
Always the same (that I provoke a one-liner)
That's not my name (instead, I sit alone)
That's not my name (this song is monotone)
That's not my name (I gotta get some soul)
That's not my name (I gotta get some feeling)

Are you calling me "darling"?
Are you calling me "bird"?

They call me "hell" (are you calling me "darling"?)
They call me Stacey
They call me "her"
They call me Jane
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name

They call me "quiet" (are you calling me "bird"?)
But I'm a riot
Mary Jo, Lisa
Always the same
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name

They call me "hell" (first, it was in my head)
They call me Stacey (and now it's in my mind)
They call me "her" (call a preacher, get some words)
They call me Jane (and get some time in)
That's not my name (and though I realised)
That's not my name (I cannot emphasise)
That's not my name (sittin' 'round with just a promise)
That's not my name (nothing binding, so alone all the time)

They call me "quiet" (and I lock myself away, however, can't you see?)
But I'm a riot (living so desperately)
Mary Jo, Lisa (a standing joke)
Always the same (that I provoke a one-liner, though I'm dressed up)
That's not my name (out and all, with everything considered, instead, I sit alone)
That's not my name (they forget my name, this song is monotone)
That's not my name (I gotta get some soul)
That's not my name (I gotta get some feeling)
