Song lyrics
I'm not threatened by every pair of legs you watch go by
I don't cringe when you stare at women
It's just a thing called 'guy'
I don't notice your sideways glances or where your loyalty lies
I'm secure and out of me it's hard to get a rise.

I'm not jealous
I don't get moved by much
I'm not enraged
Not insecure as such
Not going insane
Rational, stays in touch
And doth I protest too much?

I'm not tortured by how often you're busy
'Cause I've got things to do
I'm not disappointed about how you don't miss me
'Cause I don't need you to.

I'm not needy
I don't get clingy much
I am not scared
I'm not afraid as such
I'm not dependent
Rock solid, stays in touch
And doth I protest too much?

So much energy to prove to you who I can't possibly be
So much energy to prove to you I'm not who you hate for me to be.

I'm not saddened and I don't miss you
'Cause I have moved on, too
I'm not concerned about your new lover
'Cause I've a new lover, too.

I'm not depressed
I don't get down that much
I'm not despondent
I am not dark as such
I'm never sad
Keep chin up, stays in touch
And doth I protest too much?

I'm not jealous
I don't get moved by much
I'm not enraged
Not insecure as such
Not going insane
Rational, stays in touch
And doth I protest too much?

To the person who asked: Doth = Old english meaning "to do".. but really it's just an illusion to a line out of Shakespeare's Hamlet, "The lady doth protest too much, methinks." Very clever, Alanis, very clever.

This is has to be another favorate from her so-called chaos album...I hope her talented song writing skills once again ignite people's interest in her music the way it did back in 90s. Alanis you are very intelligent
