I'm Not Gonna Sing You a Song

"I'm Not Gonna Sing You a Song" is a song featured in the Disney/Pixar animated series Monsters at Work. It is performed by Mike Wazowski to a small infant he has nicknamed Snore. The song is meant to be ironic as it is about him saying how much he does not care for the child when in actuality, he is showing loving adoration towards her.

Lyrics[]

I put you back, back where you came from
I put you back, back where you belong
I put you back, back where you came from
And I'm not gonna sing you a song

I don't care about you, not one single bit
I don't care about you at all
I don't care about you, so don't think I do
And I'm not gonna sing you a song

Your sweet, simple smile doesn't brighten my day
Your eyes don't reach into my heart
Your wiggly toes don't tickle my nose
And quite frankly you smell like a rose

I'm putting you back, back where you came from
And like I told ya, I won't sing a song
I put you back, back where you came from
And now it's hard to say (good night, Snore) so long
