The Guy for Her

from Traveling Man by Lyle Divinsky

/

lyrics

What can I say to make her understand
That I could be her shelter
Carry her bags when she’s got full hands
Or maybe I should tell her
Some thing clever, something quick
That I’m a master of words at the stop of… shit

What can I show her, so she could see
That I’m the finest bachelor
Crop a picture of her and me
Or maybe that would lack the
Initial connection that’s so necessary
But all she said was eww when she saw I was so hairy

(Chorus)
I can’t see what’s going on here
I try so hard to make it clear
All she does is walk on by
When I know in my heart that I could be the guy, but
I can’t see what’s going on now
I just need to find some way how
I can make her stop on by
And understand that I could be the guy
For her… (Ahhh…)

What can I do, to make her laugh
So she would know that I’m hip
Pierce my tongue, or drive real fast
Or maybe that would still miss
(Shoo-Be-Do-Wop)The point, the moment, the instigation
When instead all I’m feeling is perspiration

(Legato Verse)
Maybe it’s time, I throw it all away
A long, lost delusion (Goodbye)
Of thinking that there might be a day
Well fuck this confusion
(Ahh) I, guess I’ll just walk on by
Since now I know I’ll never be that guy

(Cheesy Jazz)
Well hello Cindy, I didn’t see
You walking there, right next to me (Bap-Ba-Do…)
You know my name, well how about that
I like your shoes, you like my hat (Bap-Ba-Do)
What am I doing, later on?
Why don’t you come over, I’ll play you a song (Bap-Ba-Do)
That sounds great, I’ll see you at ten (Oooo…)
What the fuck just happened?

(Chorus)
I can see what’s going on here (I see what it is)
I tried so hard to make it clear (Tried so hard)
All she did was walk on by
When I knew in my heart that I could be the guy, but
I can see what’s going on now (It’s finally here)
But I don’t understand quite how (Just don’t know)
She came and stopped on by
And understands that I’m the guy
For her… (Ahhh…)
