[Verse 1]
I don't love anyone
You're not listening
You're playing with something
You're playing with yourself

[Verse 2]
I don't love anyone
You're not listening even now
Playing with something
You're playing with someone else

[Chorus]
If there's one thing that I learned when I was still a child
It's to take a hiding, yeah

[Verse 3]
I don't love anything
Not even Christmas
Especially not that
I don't love anything

[Verse 4]
I don't love anyone
Well, maybe my sister
Maybe my baby brother too, yeah
I don't love anyone
[Chorus 2]
If there's one thing that I learned when I was still a child
It's to take a hiding, yeah
If there's one thing that I learned when I was still a child
It's to be alone

[Chorus]
If there's one thing that I learned when I was still a child
It's to take a hiding, yeah

[Verse 5]
Out in the street today
The kids are out playing, having fun
Well, I pass them by, I'm not a kid, no
I don't love anyone

[Verse 6]
I met a man today
And he told me something pretty strange
There's always somebody saying something
He said "The world is as soft as lace"
But I don't love anyone

[Bridge]
I don't love anyone
I don't love anyone
I don't love anyone
I don't love anyone
I don't love anyone
I don't love anyone
I don't love anyone
[Chorus]
If there's one thing that I learned when I was still a child
It's to take a hiding
