I First Saw You in the Doorway
So Began My Demise
I Didn't Make a Good Impression
You Said Hello to Me Twice
But You Shouldn't Be Ashamed
Since I Thought You Was Another Dame
Coz You Have the Same Name
As Her

That Night We Didn't Hit it Off
You Took a Liking to My Friend
I Was Running All Over the Place
I Had a Thousand Things to Tend
To
And as I Began to Like You
My Mate He Didn't Dare to
Go Through
With the Things
You Were About to Do

A Fight Erupted
Screams and Bad Punchlines
You Fled the Scene
As You Leave Your Hair Still Shines
And I Thought that I Was Gonna Miss You
Coz I Really Wanted to Kiss You
And My Friend
He Didn't Diss You
Until the End

Oh What a Shame

You Forgot Your Glas Shoe
You Asked Me Where it Was
I Had a Reason to See You Again
If I Could Only Find What You Had Lost
But Where You Said You'd Seen it Last
I Ran Down the Stairs to Find it Fast
But When I Passed
My Disappointment was Vast

We Started to Talk
On the Internet
At First it Went Great
Then I Wished We'd Never Met
I Said I Was a Nazi
And You Said Well Grazi
But I'm Not Interested in Your Kind of Possee

I Told You I Was Joking
I Told You I Had Lied
You Asked Me What I Was Smoking
As I Made a Bad Joke About Suicide
You May Thought I Was High on Dope
But I Still Never Lost My Hope
I Didn't Give up and Mope
I Tried to Cope
With it

You Turned to Me For Comfort
When You Had a Bad Day
You Were Depressed
But I Consoled Mylady
My Big Mistake was Now Old News
This Game I Wasn't Gonna Lose
But You Still Have to Choose
If You Wanna Cruise
With Me

I Said "Do You Wanna Go for a Coffee"
You Said "I'd Love to But Now I Gotta Run"
I Later Reminded you of My Offer
You Said "Yes That Would Be Fun"
But None of My Dates Worked for You
I Guess You Have a Lot to Do
Or You Are Just too Nice to Tell Me to Shoo

One Night there was a Party
All the Way in Your Town
My Best Friend Remembered to Call
But My Other Friends They Let Me Down
I Asked You For a Third Go
"Do You Wanna Meet Tomorrow?"
You Said "I'd Love to Meet, But I Got a Lot of Things to Do Though"

It's Hard For Me to Know
If You're Saying Yes Because You're Set
Because You're too Nice to Say No
Or Because You're Playing Hard to Get
I Wish You Wouldn't Play that Game
Just Give Me an Honest Answer, Dame
And Don't Have Me Jumping Through Hoops
