Lyrics

''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. i'm sittin' at the unemployment office, waitin' on my loser of a caseworker, in one of those nasty chairs, when from out of nowhere, this total stranger walks right up to me, sits down, then leans over and says something like, this is gonna sound a little obsessive.'', this is gonna sound a little obsessive, this is gonna sound a little bit strange, i have one thing to say, before i turn and i walk away, this is gonna sound a little impulsive, this is gonna sound a little insane, i know you don't know me yet, but you and i, we will be together someday, someday, i know, i know, i sound like i'm on drugs, listen to me when i say, that ever since when i first saw you, sittin' on your car outside, you asked for a cigarette, i couldn't stop starin' at your eyes, ever since when i first saw you, looking bored in that plastic chair, with the lights of the office around you, those blond streaks, they look so pretty in your black hair, you look cool and alternative with that disaffected stare, yeah you want people to think that you just don't care, hey you can be with me, yeah 'cause i just might be the one, who will treat you like you're perfect, who will always make you come, hey you can be with me, yes i will always let you win, i will never be like those other guys, i will never be your unemployed boyfriend, can you believe he said that to me?, to me, of all people! i can't even remember the last time a guy took me out, on a date and actually paid for it!?, this is gonna sound a little bit out there, this is gonna sound a little insane, i keep having the same dream, you will be the mother of my children someday, someday, i heard you sleep with that obnoxious guy, i know he is in that famous band, you look so sad when you are with him, yes i never see him reach to hold your hand, yeah you can be with me, yes i will treat you like a queen, i will go to all those chick flick movies, that i really don't want to see, yeah you can be with me, no i will never let you down, i will never make out with your girlfriend, when i know you're not around, yes you can be with me, yeah i just might be the one, who will treat you like you're special, i will always make you come, you can be with me, yes i will always let you win, i will never be like those other guys, i will never be like those other guys, i will never be your unemployed boyfriend, can you believe this? i mean, can this be for real?", no!, "then he takes my hand, writes down his number, and just walks away.", whoa!
