Something is not right with me! Something is not right with me! Something is not right with me! How was I supposed to know? Something is not right with me! Something is not right with me! Something is not right with me! Tryin' not to let it show! I tried to call you collect You said you would not accept Your friends are laughin' cause Nobody uses pay phones Gave me quarters to select So I'm on the jukebox again People dancin' Shoulda never chose "Girlfriend" Something is not right with me! Something is not right with me! Something is not right with me! How was I supposed to know? Something is not right with me! Something is not right with me! Something is not right with me! I'm trying not to let it show! Crash into the people who're Sleepin' late into the evening Reach behind they can hardly find their spines Crash into the people who're Sleepin' late into the evening Reach behind they can hardly find their spines Crash into the people who're Sleepin' late into the evening Reach behind they can hardly find their spines You said you too like old cars I bought a beat up brown Dodge It was smoking but it died in your front yard You follow whose dating who But, but when it comes to you One is pulled a dozen Different ways in the mind Something is not right with me! Something is not right with me! Something is not right with me! How was I supposed to know? Something is not right with me! Something is not right with me! Something is not right with me! I'm tryin' not to let it show!
