Verse:

It's no surprise, I realize,
That you are leaving me. But still I smile,  You see.
You've played your game, You're all to blame.

So before you start to go, I would like to let you know.

 

Chorus:

I Don't Care, If you go away,

I Don't Care, If you go to stay.

I Don't Care if you sigh, I Dont Care if you cry,

I Don't Care, And why should I?

I Don't Care, If you leave me flat,

I Don't Care, Any more than that.

Why should I feel so blue, When you've been so untrue?

For there's many better than you, So why should I care.
