Not My Job to control you, or enroll you, or bestow you
With some kind of honor, it's Not My Job
It's Not My Job to remind you that in time you'll miss the sweet ground that you walk upon
It's Not My Job to induce you or seduce you or reduce you, It's Not My Job
It's not my place to embrace you or erase you or disgrace you
With some particular comment
It's Not My Job to infect you or reject you or inspect you for your lovely behavior, It's Not My Job
It's Not My Job to amuse you or confuse you just to use you for some kind of favor, It's Not My Job
Not my case to erase you or disgrace, what does it take to get this message across?

All my friends tell me I had some real pain comin'
All I ever really wanted was to be in love
My own daddy tells me, "You can't change no friend, nobody.
Once they're grown they're in their mold, and that's the way it is."

Not My Job to save you or embrace you or to trace all the tears that you've swallowed, It's Not My Job
It's Not My Job to relieve you or believe you or conceive you spoke the truth
When every single word seem so wrong
Not My Job to improve you or remove you or accuse you of everything you wish you were not

It is my job to pay attention to my changes
"Don't ever let anybody try to cut you down,"
My own mamma tells me: I will always have myself
I am my own strength that I lean upon

It's not my business not my call-not my place, no not at all, Not My Job
Not my invention of your redemption-no hired help, save yourself, save yourself
It's intuition or your suspicion on the shelf-help yourself, help yourself, It's Not My Job
It's Not My Job, Not My Job to end this song, it's Not My Job
