I'd rather be irrelevant than forgotten

She said with a grin as she downed another whiskey sour

and made excuses for our irreverence.

Go on Go on,

The world waits for you

And there's always something more important than me

I assure you.

I'd rather be irrelevant than forgotten

She said without shame as she danced out of the bar

And left him puzzeling his mistake

Leave it my dear

The world is too big

And too full of important things than I can say

And I swear

I'd rather be irrelevant than forgotten

she said, knowing one leads to the other in the end

but when she pretends she can't care.
