I Just Want People To Like Me – English Lyrics

• By: Robbie Williams

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

I'm psychedelic,

unstable

They want role model but I just puked a rainbow

It gets so lonely

I tried to end it all

Jumped off my wallet but I landed in my swimming pool

And I think so hard

why don't you love me?

Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, our hands in the air

I am in my private jet, I am a limousine

I got my tears back baby, and I'm super clean

Get excited

I just want people to like me

I'm in the land of the brave, in the home of the free

I got a pretty young thing right on top of me

Come inside, girl

Some people just ain't going like it

I can't dance

I can't sing

But I made it this far you'd think they'd be happy for me

And I'm so loaded

I guess I could stop

'Cause absolutely nothing about me loves pissing you off

And I cry all night, why don't you love me?

Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, our hands in the air

I am in my private jet, I am a limousine

I got my tears back baby, and I'm super clean

Get excited

I just want people to like me

I'm in the land of the brave, in the home of the free

I got a pretty young thing right on top of me

Come inside, girl

Some people just ain't going like it

They gave my music to a man who played my music to a scene

They gave my music to some people who say what they mean

Call me psychic

Some people just ain't going like it

They gave my music to a man who played my music to a scene

They gave my music to some people who say what they mean

Call me psychic

Some people just ain't going like it

I am in my private jet, I am a limousine

I got my test back baby, and I'm super clean

Get excited

I just want people to like me

I'm in the land of the brave, in the home of the free

I got a pretty young thing right on top of me

Keira Knightley

Some people just ain't going like it
