Que No, Que No

I've been restless for a while
Eating little, it's hard to smile
I've gone through the motions, done things
That don't make me happy

My tray is full
Of requests, of a thousand favors
And absolutely no one
Asks about me

I think and light some incense
Unfold the whole array of candles
I stop, breathe, smile, trust
Uncork a bottle

If I choose to be my priority
It's not a matter of selfishness
Quality time
Starts with dedicating to oneself

And if it doesn't come from the heart
I'm going to learn to say no
Those who truly love me will understand
I wasn't born just to please

And if it doesn't come from the heart
I'm going to learn to say no
If I want to improve the world
First, I'm going to pamper myself

I've dressed in fashionable clothes
I've dolled up to please myself
I bought a bunch of roses
And nervously asked myself out

My head is full of a thousand reasons
That assure me the truest love
Is closer than I think

Oh, what a silly thing, Maria, if you stay alone for life
Dressing the saints with hundreds of cats
Crying without company

If I choose to be my priority
It's not a matter of selfishness
Quality time
Starts with dedicating to oneself

And if it doesn't come from the heart
I'm going to learn to say no
Those who truly love me will understand
I wasn't born just to please

And if it doesn't come from the heart
I'm going to learn to say no
If I want to improve the world
First, I'm going to pamper myself

And if it doesn't come from the heart
I'm going to learn to say no
Those who truly love me will understand
I wasn't born just to please

And if it doesn't come from the heart
I'm going to learn to say no
If I want to improve the world
First, I'm going to pamper myself, pamper myself
