With A Boy Like You

I can't discern, don't understand
Why you recoil at the wave of my hand
I really thought we could be friends
But there you go
Turning up your nose again
Is it my hair?
Is it my face?
Is it my shirt from 1988?
Well, surely there is something I can do
To turn this around, 'cause it's bringing me down
When I come your way, every time you say

"I could never make it with a boy like you
With a boy like you, with a boy like you
I could never shake it with a boy like you
With a boy like you, with a boy like you
I could never take it with a boy like you
With a boy like you, with a boy like you
Couldn't even fake it with a boy like you
With a boy like you, with a boy like you"

I'll get a haircut, some better clothes
The things you like, I'll get you some of those
But, still I wonder
Will that be enough?
Looking in the mirror, I don't look that tough
Am I too skinny?
I call it slim
I can't believe you'd make me go to the gym
There must be something else I could do
To turn this around, I just don't know how
When I come your way, every time you say

"I could never make it with a boy like you
With a boy like you, with a boy like you
I could never shake it with a boy like you
With a boy like you, with a boy like you
I could never take it with a boy like you
With a boy like you, with a boy like you
Couldn't even fake it with a boy like you
With a boy like you, with a boy like you"

There must be something else I could do
To turn this around, I just don't know how
When I come your way, every time you say

"I could never make it with a boy like you
With a boy like you, with a boy like you
I could never shake it with a boy like you
With a boy like you, with a boy like you
I could never take it with a boy like you
With a boy like you, with a boy like you
Couldn't even fake it with a boy like you
With a boy like you, with a boy like you"

“With a boy like you
With a boy like you
I could never make it with a boy like you
With a boy like you, with a boy like you
Couldn't even fake it with a boy like you
With a boy like you, with a boy like you"
