I said you’re the woman from last night   Standing just to my right   You’re the one that said I was sweet   When I left your kiss in my cheek   And said we could hook up sometime maybe   Well now is a good a time as any   She said I don’t mean to offend you   But you’re not quite how I remembered you   You seemed to look a lot better then   But I think you’re nice as a friend   So pull up a seat and sit down   We’re just having a drink and hanging out   So I tried to play it sexy and hurt   She said I came across as an introvert   So I changed to being a deep and profound   Until she asked me if I was feeling down   And when I told her that I was well read   She looked at me and just said : Waouf waouf !      You’re trying too hard but keep trying   You’re trying too hard but keep trying   You’re trying too hard but keep trying   Whatever it is I’m not buying      So I phoned her that weekend   She said she’s seeing a barman called jonathan   He wears nice clothes and keeps his hair neat   But I could give her a call back next week   So next week we’re out to coffee   She tells me she’s really gone off me   I say gone off me? Hey you don’t know me   She said exactly so don’t phone me   I said you haven’t even given this a chance   She smiled and looked with a glance and said : Waouf waouf !      You’re trying too hard but keep trying   You’re trying too hard but keep trying   You’re trying too hard but keep trying   Whatever it is I’m not buying      You’re trying too hard but keep trying   You’re trying too hard but keep trying   You’re trying too hard but keep trying   Whatever it is I’m not buying      When is this loneliness gonna end and   When will they stop crawling about their boyfriends (boyfriends)   When is a girl gonna get with me (me)   There must be one in this city see ? (see)   All I want is something that’s real (real)   I’m tired of having to spiel (spiel)      Two months later she phones me up now   Saying hey I heard you’re doing well now   Let’s you and me go out for a meal   'Cause I’ve never told you how I really feel   So how about it and you can meet me   I said which me did you wanna see?   I got a girl now who knows who I am   So I can be my own man I’m flattered but      You’re trying too hard but keep trying   You’re trying too hard but keep trying   You’re trying too hard but keep trying   Whatever it is I’m not buying      You’re trying too hard but keep trying   You’re trying too hard but keep trying   You’re trying too hard but keep trying   Whatever it is I’m not buying
