My Name Is Not Susan (Live from The Concert for a New South Africa)

Well, anyway
My name is not Susan
(Need her) Need her
Be on your merry little way (Susan)
No, no, no, no, got nothin' on me
Re— (Respect), receive

Susan's not my name, my name's not Susan
Check your train of thought or the vocabulary you're usin'
I'm not the one for you to be confusing with another
You can take that to the bank, and I'm not frontin' on you, brother

I'm an individual, my love is exclusive
The way you insult my intellect is just abusive
So, if my individuality you can't respect
Then honey, you can elsewhere to place your bet

(Susan)
(Get it right, get it right, get it right)
(Susan)
(Get it right, get it right, get it right)

One night not long ago
I fell for you
Too easy to let go
(Oh)She was one from your past
One of the few
You said it didn't last

Now Romeo you know I can't believe
Your tongue would slip so easily (easily)
I know you think I oughta let it be
But get it right (get it right), next time (next time)
That's the end of me

(My name is not Susan) Susan
(So watch what you say) So watch what you say
(And if you still need her) need her
(Then be on your way)
(Don't wanna hear about Susan) no
(She's got nothin' on me) me
(So show some respect for the love you receive) receive
(My name is not Susan) My name is not Susan, No, no, no, no
(Get it right) Get it, Get it, Get it right, Get it right, no?

Last night you were asleep
Deep in a dream
I heard you call her name
Then you turned to (to) embrace
I froze in place
Never to be the same

Now Romeo you know I never knew
My heart would bust so easily
I know you think I oughta let it go
But get it right (get it right), next time (next time)
Say goodbye to me

(My name is not Susan) oh, oh
(So watch what you say) oh, oh
(And if you still need her) need her, need her, need her
(Then be on your way) Then be on your way
(Don't wanna hear about Susan) no
(She's got nothin' on me) nothin' on me
(So show some respect for the love you receive)Re— receive
(My name is not Susan)(Oh) No, no, no, no

I never wanna be the girly that you call your one and only
You know the kind of girly you would call when you get lonely
I never should have let you in
A damn shame, forgot my name (forgot my name)
Well, anyway

(My name is not Susan)
(So watch what you say)
(And if you still need her)
(Then be on your way)
(Don't wanna hear about Susan) no
(She's got nothin' on me) me
(So show some respect for the love you receive)Re—
(My name is not Susan)

Now's the time for me to take a stand
Just to rea**ure you of the woman that I am
Being part of a comparison is just not my style
If we were to race, you know I'd win by miles

Susan this, Susan that, the conversation is tired
I'm the one that's loving you, why don't you try it
My name is not Susan, so watch what you say
And if you still need her, be on your merry, merry way

(My name is not Susan) My name is not Susan
(So watch what you say) No, no, My name is not Susan
(And if you still need her) No, no, My name is not Susan
(Then be on your way) No, no, no, no
(Don't wanna hear about Susan) My name is not Susan
(She's got nothin' on me) Name—Susan, Name—Susan
(So show some respect for the love you receive) Su, Su, Su, Su, Su, Su—

(My name is not Susan) Su—
(So watch what you say) oh
(And if you still need her) need her
(Then be on your way) (No, no, no, no)
(Don't wanna hear about Susan)
(She's got nothin' on me) nothin' on me
(So show some respect for the love you receive) some respect
(My name is not Susan) Oh Oh Su—
