about

I know you have a girlfriend but that problem isn't mine.

lyrics

I couldn't believe it when I saw you at the mall,
Could I ever have such luck? It couldn't be true at all
How could I get a guy like you, let alone one who's so tall?

I couldn't believe it when you lead me to a stall
and then you pushed me up, right against the wall
then you held me up so tight so I wouldn't slip and fall.

This is the best job I have ever had
Working in the fashion mall
Party in the bathroom stall
Making extra money and avoiding mom and dad

I know you have a girlfriend but that problem isn't mine
You can't fight destiny, when the stars align
How could I get a guy like you, let alone one who's so fine?

I know you are a player and maybe it's just the wine
But the way you feel against me is utterly devine
Meet me later in the parking lot? I get off at nine.

Everything is better since I turned 21
Working in the fashion mall
Drinking lots of alcohol
Getting with the hottest guys, impressing everyone.

I couldn't believe it when I saw her in the parking lot
I could tell she was your girlfriend by the way that you guys fought
I hid behind a truck and you dumped her on the spot!

Now that she's out of here our love can have a shot
We don't have to sneak around and try not to get caught
How could I get a guy like you, let alone one who's so hot?

You are the coolest guy I have ever kissed
Working in the fashion mall
Till the summer turns to fall
Counting down the moments till our next lunchtime tryst
