Lyrics:

Verse:
Wrote a song about the girl
From across the room
Told her that I love her
In the most elegant way

Went outside her window 
And I took out my guitar
I played her the song
But all the words came out wrong

I ended up telling her
That I wanted to lick her elbows
And make-out 
With her beautiful cat

So I got a restraining order
So I guess it's not all bad
I can still make it up to her
Cause I can play this song from 20 feet away


Chorus:
I can't play live
But don't hold it against me
Unless it's your body
Then go ahead baby touch me

I hope you understood that last line
I think I said it backwards
And told you I wanna love a starfish

But I wouldn't do that
Unless the starfish was you
But now I'm rambling on and on and on
And now I'm glad that this is the end of the chorus
 
Verse:
So I went to try again
Wrote her another song
Making fun of the first time
That I messed up

So I followed her into the bathroom
And I took out my guitar
She thought it was the radio, stereo
The way you move ain't fair you know

Oh crap!
I think just had a copyright infringement
Oh well maybe Train won't even notice me
Just like she has for 3 whole years

Anyway, this song is what I played
And she liked it so much
'Til found out it was me
Now I have to win her heart from 50 more feet away

(Chorus)

Guitar Solo!

I can't play live
But don't hold it against me
Unless it's your body
Then go ahead baby touch me

I hope you understood that last line
I think I said it backwards
And told you I wanna love a starfish

But I wouldn't do that
Unless the starfish was you
But now I'm rambling on and on and on
And now I'm glad that this is the end of the
Now I'm glad that this is the end of the
Now I'm glad that this is the end of the song
