Lyrics:
I don’t wanna be your personal Jesus 
I don’t wanna live inside of that flame In a way 
I wanna be my own believer I don’t wanna play your video game 

I don’t wanna be the center of the universe 
I don’t wanna be a part of that shame In a way I
 wanna be my own redeemer 
I don’t wanna play your video game 

I don’t care if everybody else is into it 
I don’t care if it’s a popular refrain I
 don’t wanna be a puppet in a theater 
I don’t wanna play your video game 

You don’t wanna be the one who has to pay for it 
You don’t wanna be the one who has to change 
All you want is what the resumé tells you 
I don’t wanna play your video game 

Chorus... I
 don’t wanna play, I don’t wanna play (I just wanna go away) I
 don’t wanna play your video game 

I don’t wanna love you if won’t receive it 
I don’t wanna save the world that way 
I don’t wanna be your personal Jesus 
I don’t wanna play your video game 
I don’t wanna put the devil on a pedestal 

I don’t wanna put the saints in chains
I just wanna make my life a little easier 
I don’t wanna play your video game 
Chorus... 

I don’t wanna be your Julius Caesar 
I don’t want it to go down that way 
But in a way you gotta follow the procedure 
So go ahead and play your video game 
Chorus...

Asthmatic Kitty Records is an independent record label that was co-founded by Lowell Brams and his stepson, singer-songwriter Sufjan Stevens, in 1999. Since its founding, AKR has released albums by a variety of artists, including Lily & Madeleine, My Brightest Diamond and Helado Negro, and is currently home to Sufjan Stevens, Angelo De Augustine, Denison Witmer and The Welcome Wagon. 

Asthmatic Kitty was named after Sara, an orange and white tabby who wandered out of the woods pregnant and starving near Holland, Michigan in 1994. For fourteen years she brought joy as a beloved friend to Lowell, enjoying a happy life despite her initial hardships. Her asthma improved after moving west to New Mexico and Wyoming, where she lived out her days as an asthmatic kitty in name only.
