Say Something Stupid

You thought it You dreamt it You put it into a pass She heard it She ignored it She'd heard it somewhere in the past Your punching You've no chance Your well out of your league She's stunning She knows this She's from another seed Yes she likes you Yes you're no Cupid And yes, you did say something stupid, And that's probably why she's with you JJB
