I Don't Care
Ed Sheeran & Justin Bieber Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm at a party I don't wanna be at
And I don't ever wear a suit and tie
Wonderin' if I could sneak out the back
Nobody's even lookin' me in my eyes
Then you take my hand
Finish my drink, say, "Shall we dance?" Hell, yeah
You know I love you, did I ever tell you?
You make it better like that

Don't think I fit in at this party
Everyone's got so much to say, yeah
I always feel like I'm nobody, mm
Who wants to fit in anyway?

'Cause I don't care when I'm with my baby, yeah
All the bad things disappear
And you're making me feel like maybe I am somebody
I can deal with the bad nights
When I'm with my baby, yeah
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
'Cause I don't care, as long as you just hold me near
You can take me anywhere
And you're making me feel like I'm loved by somebody
I can deal with the bad nights
When I'm with my baby, yeah
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

We at a party we don't wanna be at
Tryna talk, but we can't hear ourselves
Read your lips, I'd rather kiss 'em right back
With all these people all around
I'm crippled with anxiety
But I'm told it's where I'm supposed to be
You know what? It's kinda crazy 'cause I really don't mind
And you make it better like that

Don't think we fit in at this party
Everyone's got so much to say, oh yeah, yeah
When we walked in, I said I'm sorry, mm
But now I think that we should stay

'Cause I don't care when I'm with my baby, yeah
All the bad things disappear
Yeah, you're making me feel like maybe I am somebody
I can deal with the bad nights when I'm with my baby, yeah
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh (oh yeah, yeah, yeah)
'Cause I don't care as long as you just hold me near
You can take me anywhere
And you're making me feel like I'm loved by somebody
I can deal with the bad nights when I'm with my baby, yeah
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh (no)

I don't like nobody but you
It's like you're the only one here
I don't like nobody but you
Baby, I don't care
I don't like nobody but you
I hate everyone here
I don't like nobody but you
Baby, yeah

'Cause I don't care (don't care) when I'm with my baby, yeah (oh yeah)
All the bad things disappear (disappear)
And you're making me feel like maybe I am somebody (maybe I'm somebody)
I can deal with the bad nights (with the bad nights)
When I'm with my baby, yeah
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh (oh yeah, yeah, yeah)
'Cause I don't care as long as you just hold me near (me near)
You can take me anywhere (anywhere, anywhere)
And you're making me feel like I'm loved by somebody (I'm loved by somebody)
I can deal with the bad nights (yeah, yeah, yeah)




When I'm with my baby, yeah (oh)
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Overall Meaning

In Ed Sheeran and Justin Bieber's song "I Don't Care," the lyrics narrate a situation where the singer is at a party, feeling out of place and struggling with anxiety. But everything changes when their love interest takes their hand and suggests they dance. Despite the earlier apprehension, the singer then gains confidence, and their bad feelings disappear in the face of the love they feel. The chorus explains how the presence of their partner is everything they need to face tough days and situations, as they feel loved and supported. The end of the song brings out the sentiment of the singer not needing anyone besides their partner as they are the only person they like and care about.


Through the lyrics, the songwriters express the powerful connection, comfort, and security one can find through the love of another person. The feeling of being loved and supported by someone can bring light to tough times, bringing hope and confidence back into one's life. The song's happy and upbeat mood well compliments the message it conveys.


Line by Line Meaning

I'm at a party I don't wanna be at
I don't like being in this social gathering


And I don't ever wear a suit and tie
I feel out of place in this formal attire


Wonderin' if I could sneak out the back
I'm considering leaving the party without anyone noticing


Nobody's even lookin' me in my eyes
I feel invisible and ignored


Then you take my hand
You catch my attention and make me feel seen


Finish my drink, say, "Shall we dance?" Hell, yeah
You encourage me to live in the moment and enjoy your company


You know I love you, did I ever tell you?
I appreciate and cherish our relationship


You make it better like that
Being with you improves my experience at the party and in life


Don't think I fit in at this party
I don't belong in this social setting


Everyone's got so much to say, yeah
People here are talkative and opinionated


I always feel like I'm nobody, mm
I struggle with low self-esteem and feeling insignificant


Who wants to fit in anyway?
Conforming to societal standards is not important to me


'Cause I don't care when I'm with my baby, yeah

We at a party we don't wanna be at

Tryna talk, but we can't hear ourselves
The noise level in the party is disrupting our communication


Read your lips, I'd rather kiss 'em right back
I'm drawn to you and desire physical intimacy with you


With all these people all around
The crowded environment makes us feel overwhelmed


I'm crippled with anxiety
I'm struggling with overwhelming fear and nervousness

Society expects me to attend and enjoy these social events


You know what? It's kinda crazy 'cause I really don't mind
Despite my anxiety, being with you makes me enjoy the party
