But you won't talk, you won't look, you won' think of me. I'm the epitome Of public enemy. Why you gotta go do me like that? Come down on the street and dance with me! (Chorus) I'm a lot like you so please, Hello! I'm here! I'm waiting. I think I'd be good for you, And you would be good for me. (Verse 2:) I asked you to go to the Green Day concert. You said you never heard of them... How cool is that?! So I went to your room, and read your diary. Watching Grunge leg drop New Jack through a press table, And then my heart stopped listening to Cio-Cio San, Fall in love all over again. (Chorus:) I'm a lot like you so please, Hello! I'm here! I'm waiting. I think I'd be good for you, And you would be good for me. (Bridge:) How stupid is it? I can't talk about it, I gotta sing about it! And make a record of (my heart). How stupid is it? Won't you give me a minute? Just come up to me and say hello! How stupid is it? For all I know you want me, too. And maybe you just don't know what to do. And maybe I'm scared to say, "I'm falling for you..." (Verse 3:) I wish I could get my head out of the sand, Cause I think we'd make a good team, And you would keep my fingernails clean... But that's just a stupid dream that I won't realize Cause I can't even look in your eyes Without shakin', and I ain't fakin', I'll bring home the turkey if you bring home the bacon! (Final Chorus) I'm a lot like you so please, Hello! I'm here! I'm waiting (waiting). I think I'd be good for you, And you would be good for me. Whoa-hoa-hoa! I'm a lot like you, (I'm a lot like you). I'm a lot, (and I'm waiting). I think I'd be good for you, And you'd be good for me! Whoo-hoo!
