Take a Hint, by Allison McCulloch
Take A HINT
You're an old joke
I learned long ago
You're a deep secret
I never wanted to know
You can look at me
And shoot your best pick up line
But I already know
Honey you ain't mine
Maybe I'm misunderstood
Or I don't know
But I really really want
You to leave me alone
Maybe by chance it's a dream that won't last
Or a coincidence
But I'm sure aggravated that you can't take a hint
You're old baggage
Thin ice ready to break
Cna't you find another girl
For heaven's sake
So you ask my best friend
And she said no way
And come back to me
Like it's okay
Maybe I'm misunderstood
Or I don't know
But I really really want
You to leave me alone
Maybe by chance it's a dream that won't last
Or a coincidence
But I'm sure aggravated that you can't take a hint
Bridge:
Oh baby take a hint
Oh baby take take take
You're a real sweet talker
But you come across rather plain
Don't think I'm condescending
I'm insulting you babe
