  • I see her online
    All the time
    I'm trying not to stare down there
    While she talks about her tough time
    Girl of your dreams
    You know what I mean
    There's something 'bout her stare that makes you nervous
    And you say things that you don't mean

    And well, I found my hotel
    I called up the twins
    It's seven in the morning so they won't let me in
    I need to get back (get back)
    I've gotta see the girl on the screen
    (And then I phoned her and she said)

    "Maybe I would like you better if you took off your clothes
    I'm not playing with you, baby
    I think that you should give it a go"
    She said, "Maybe I would like you better if you took off your clothes
    I wanna see, and stop thinking
    If you're too shy, then let me
    Too shy, then let me know"

    I've been wearing nothing every time I call you
    And I'm starting to feel weird about it
    Sometimes it's better if you think about it
    This time, I think I'm gonna drink through it
    But I see her online
    And don't think that I should be calling all the time
    I just wanted a happy ending
    And I'm pretending I don't care 'bout her stare
    While she's giving me a tough time

    Well, I found a motel
    It looked like the bins
    I think there'd been a murder so we couldn't get in
    I need to get back (get back)
    I've gotta see the girl on the screen

    Maybe I would like you better if you took off your clothes
    I'm not playing with you, baby
    I think that you should give it a go
    She said, "Maybe I would like you better if you took off your clothes
    I wanna see, and stop thinking
    If you're too shy, then let me
    Too shy then let me go"
    (Oh, yeah)

    (I see her online)
    (All the time)

    She said, "Maybe I would like you better if you took off your clothes
    I'm not playing with you, baby
    I think that you should give it a go"
    She said, "Maybe I would like you better if you took off your clothes
    I wanna see, and stop thinking
    If you're too shy, then let me
    Too shy, then let me know" Writer/s: Adam Brian Thomas Hann, George Bedford Daniel, Matthew Timothy Healy, Ross Stewart MacDonald
