She's a knockout.

Out of my league by far!
A short little singer
With a metal mouth.

I think about her mouth a lot.
Sometimes singing,
But mostly her mouth on mine...

Maybe it's because I want
A notch on my belt?
I joke to my friends,
"I'm not trying to date her!"

Maybe it's because
Opposites attract?
The F's on her report card
Are just one-legged A's to me!

Maybe it's because
I feel bad for being a heartbreaker?
And I know her heart
Would not be involved.

Maybe it's because
My heart wouldn't be involved?
It is currently
Unavailable.

Leave a message after the beep.

No matter what the reason is,
I want to kiss her.

I want to invite her to a sleepover,
I want to hold her hand, in public..?
No!
Hold her hip.

Walk pass the girl who
Stunted my heartbeats...?
No!

I'm tired of kissing girls
To make some ghost feel bad.
I want to kiss girls
To make me feel good.

Maybe I don't know what I want.

Maybe she's not my dream girl...
But she is a knockout.

And that's good enough for me.
