I've read this countless times 'Oh Liam wrote a pun with "Don't bother me" with his song "Don't brother me". It's not! I'm surprised that I've read this in press reviews too...
I've heard this expression quite a lot, not with brother mind you, but with other expressions. One that I can remember is a Simpsons episode in which Marge is furious at Homer who calls her his soulmate and she replies angrily "Don't soulmate me!".

I think he means that he think's a lot of people think that the song is a deliberate misspelling/pun on the phrase Don't Bother Me. He is saying that it's more like when people are having an argument and one person day's something like "but sweetie" and the other person says "don't 'sweetie' me." Kind of like a don't try to pretend things are OK between us right now or try to butter me up because you want something kind of thing. Makes sense. Although aren't the lyrics actually "don't bother me"?

liamgallagher1992 Yeah what gdforever said Maybe "pun" would have been clearer. But I do believe the lyrics are actually "Don't brother me when you're done". I don't have the sleeve to check though. Anyhow I know Liam's not the best lyricist in the world but he deserve more credit than a pun on Don't Bother Me.

It may not be a pun but it's a fucking dreadful song! I've just listened to it for the first time in months and it actually sounds worse than I remember it.
