I Don't Want An Answer To That
by Boffo Yux Dudes
(SongFight Reference song - "Happy to Be Here")

I’ve been here for years - after all this time
You stare at me with daggers covered in slime
I say I’m happy to be here, you know that I’m lying
I can force a grin but inside my heart is dying

Did you think I’m clever, or funny at all?
Maybe you thought I was a little too small?
Am I full of unmitigated gall? I guess...
I don’t want an answer to that.

Pretend everyone’s happy; it’s your little game
You twist your knives to hurt us and call it a shame
Are you happy to be here? You think I’m the same? Well....
I don’t want an answer to that.

It’s your party, so you can lie if you want to
At least acknowledge the crap that you put me through
I know that you slag me when you get the chance
Don’t pretend you really mean it when you ask me to dance

Did you think I’m clever, or funny at all?
Maybe you thought I was a little too small?
Am I full of unmitigated gall? I guess...
I don’t want an answer to that.

Pretend everyone’s happy; it’s your little game
You twist your knives to hurt us and call it a shame
Are you happy to be here? You think I’m the same? Well....
I don’t want an answer to that.

I couldn’t figure out just why you kept me around
Did you enjoy making me beg? Did you just like the sound?
You’ll excuse me as I turn and walk out the door
I don’t think you’ll even notice while you’re holding the floor.

Did you think I’m clever, or funny at all?
Maybe you thought I was a little too small?
Am I full of unmitigated gall? I guess...
I don’t want an answer to that.

Pretend everyone’s happy; it’s your little game
You twist your knives to hurt us and call it a shame
Are you happy to be here? You think I’m the same? Well....
I don’t want an answer to that.

I think this is your best song this Nur Ein. My 2 main criticisms are that some of the harmonies are off-key, and the song does everything it's gonna do in the first 45 seconds, the verses/structure/arrangement don't develop in any way over the course of the song.

I'm having a difficult time figuring out whether these are good lyrics, or if I'm just pleasantly surprised that you didn't waste a lot of effort this time around trying to be funny. Either way, this is probably the best BYD track I've heard to date. The audio fidelity and performances (especially the vocals) are really well-done. Your lyrics keep jumping around and threatening to use "Funny Enough for You," which I thought for sure was the Song Fight title you'd be most likely to use. Oh well. Good job!
