Lyrics

I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
Taken for granted
Taken for granted
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
Taken for granted
Taken for granted

I'm always there when you need me
Pick me up when you're feeling low
You smile for a while and deceive me
But you control the ebb and flow

But I know how I'm regarded
'Cause you only care for a while
Soon enough, I'll be discarded
I guess that's just your style

I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
Taken for granted
Taken for granted
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
Taken for granted
Taken for granted

I'm not your puppy dog
I'm not your little pet
I hope you understand
And I hope you don't forget

Take some time to reflect
On your total arrogance
I found some self-respect
So now it's zero-tolerance

I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
Taken for granted
Taken for granted
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
Taken for granted
Taken for granted

I got no time
I got no time
I got no time
I got no time
I got no time
I got no time
I got no time
I got no time
I got no time
I got no time
I got no time
I got no time
I got no time
I got no time

I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
Taken for granted
Taken for granted
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
Taken for granted
Taken for granted
