I've got a thing for a girl with a last name That would make you laugh out loud if you heard it with the first I'd like to think that maybe sooner or later That she would change her mind about thinking I'm the worst She said before that she don't like me this way Cause I'm the guy that likes to stay too late We shared a cab so we would not have to drive So I'm responsible for her being alive [Chorus] I try to hold her hand She doesn't understand Why I just won't give up She tells me we're just friends I say, "That all depends" And then she gives me that look Like she doesn't think that it's ever gonna work out (1 2 3 4 5 6 7) I lost my job because I've got a smart mouth She works six days a week and has a nice house I bought her flowers and the note said "Just cause" I added words that may have made her throw up [Chorus] I hope she'll come around Who doesn't love the clown? And have you ever seen my hair? Maybe I text too much I like to keep in touch Is there an emoticon for despair? She doesn't think that it's ever gonna work out I try so hard to act like it's just fine the way it is But for real, I wish that she would quit making me feel like shiz I love you, can't you see? I know you're the one for me I've got a thing for a girl with a last name That would make you laugh out loud if you heard it with the first [Chorus] I try to hold her hand She doesn't understand Why I just won't give up She tells me we're just friends I say, "That all depends" And then she gives me that look Like she doesn't think that it's ever gonna work out She doesn't think that it's ever gonna work out She doesn't think that it's ever gonna work out
