Overview
Immediately following "Come to My Pod", Jonas realizes that he is making a mistake by following lust and not love. The assumption is that immediately after having sex, Jonas decides to leave. Maria tries to convince him to stay, but he's had enough and is filled with shame. Unlike the slow and soothing previous track, "Oh No, This Is Not For Me" is heavy and dramatic as Jonas comes to terms with what he has done. This song was also leaked in demo-form over the internet.
Personnel
- Rivers Cuomo – lead guitar, lead vocals, percussion, rhythm guitar, bass guitar
Lyrics
<lyrics>[JONAS:] Oh no, this is not for me I feel so empty I feel remorse I've got to leave you
[MARIA:] No, don't go You'll feel okay in the morning
[JONAS:] But Maria, I'm red with shame There's no one to blame but myself I know what is right but I do what is wrong I do what is wrong </lyrics>
