N.C.

Hi this is Peggy, leave me a nice message or I'll kill ya! Hey Peggy, it's me You are never going to believe what happened to me today G CI'm sitting at the unemployment office Waiting on my GloCser of a case worker CIn one of those nasty chairs CWhen from out of nowhere This total GstCranger walks right up to me, sits down Then leans over and says something GliCke C"This is going to sound a little obsessive...."
[Verse 1]
GThis is going to Csound a little obsessive This is going to sound a little bit Gstrange I have Cone thing to say CBefore I turn and I walk away GThis is going to Csound a little impulsive This is going to sound a little inGsane I know you Cdon't know me yet CBut you and I CWe will be together SomeAday ASomeday AI know ... I know ... I sound like I'm on drugs But listen to me Gwhen I say...
[Chorus]
That ever since CI first saw you Sitting on your car outGside you asked Cfor a cigarette CI couldn't stop staring at your eyes GEver since Cwhen I first saw you Looking bored in that plastic Gchair With the lights Cof the office around you EmThose blonde streaks CThey look so pretty Gin your black Ahair AYou look cool and alternative with that disaffected stare Yeah, You want people to think that you Gjust don't care Hey, you can be with DmeG 'cause I Djust might be the Gone Who will Dtreat you like you're Cperfect Who will always make you Gcum
[Chorus]
Hey, you can Dbe with me GI will Dalways let you Gwin I will Dnever be like those Cother guys I will never be your unemDployed Gboyfriend
[Bridge]
GCan you believe he said that to me?!? GTo me, of all people! CI can't even remember the last time when a guy took me out on a date and actually paid for it
[Verse 2]
GThis is going to sound a Clittle bit out there GYeah this is going to sound a Clittle insane GBut I keep having the Csame dream GYou will be the mother of my Achildren someday ASomeday...
[Bridge]
AI've heard you sleep with that obnoxoius guy AI know he is in that famous band AYou look so sad when you are with him AYes, I never see him reach to hold your hand GYou can be with me, yes I will Dtreat you like a Gqueen I will Dgo to all those Cchick flick movies CThat I really don't want to see GYou can Dbe with me GNo I will Dnever let you Gdown I will Dnever make out with Cyour girlfriends When I Dknow you're not aGround You can Dbe with meG Yeah DI just might be the Gone who will Dtreat you like you're Cspecial I will always make you Gcum
[Chorus]
GYou can be with me I will Ealways let you Gwin I will Dnever be like those Cother guys CI will never be like those other guys I will never be your unemployed Gboyfriend
[Outro]
GCan you believe this? CI mean, can this be for real?!? Then he takes my hand, Cwrites down his number, Gand just walks away I mean, CWOW But you know, the weird thing is, he's actually kinda Gcute In a Creally intense way, kinda like Perry Farrell Intense but sensitive, Ganyway I told my bitchy sister about it GAnd she just laughed at me, I told her I was really exited about this guy GI said this could be the guy
