I couldn't catch a ride, I tried so I was walkin'
Started raining when you called to tell me 
You were flaking out again 
I only had a buck not enough to get a latte
So I sat down at a table and I thought about you instead
I'd have to be a fool to believe every word you said

oh oh

And I don't wanna be your dummy
I cut the strings and I'm free honey
I don't want your fast-life or your money or your time
So stuck on yourself its funny
Hanging with you feels so crummy 
So I don't wanna be your dummy
da dummy, da dummy

You were walking through the mall
with all the carbon copies
showin off screaming on your cell phone
I wonder why I didn't see it then
You spend hours and hours trying to make your hair look sloppy oh oh oh
You spend hundreds of dollars on a t-shirt that you wear
For the week its "in"
Now that were apart I wonder if you miss a thing 

oh oh

And I don't wanna be your dummy
I cut the strings and I'm free honey
I don't want your fast-life or your money or your time
So stuck on yourself its funny
Hanging with you feels so crummy 
So I don't wanna be your dummy
da dummy, da dummy

And if your asking then the last thing 
I wanna be is a puppet on a string
You're unbelievable- its inconceivable
If you think I'll let you make a fool of me

And I don't wanna be your dummy
I cut the strings and I'm free honey
I don't want your fast-life or your money or your time
So stuck on yourself its funny
Hanging with you feels so crummy 
So I don't wanna be your dummy
This dummy's no dummy
