lyrics

boy:
I've got your number in my wallet
and I'm gonna have to call it
but first I have a code to work out
because the string of crazy symbols
that you very quickly scribbled
makes little sense to me now
I suppose it is a trial
to check if I'm worthwhile
of taking you out on a date
but it's got me in a muddle
it's an unexpected puzzle
and it's causing me to hesitate

well I won't shy away from a challenge
and I'm not going to quit without a fight
but it seems you had your doubts
whether this would work out
and I'm worried that you might be right.

girl:
well I met you at a party
and you kept on talking to me
though I tried my very best to get away
you seemed ok at first
but every drink made you get worse
you spoiled what could have been a lovely day
so in an attempt to dissuade you
while trying not to enrage you
I said that it was time for me to go
and I wrote down some nonsense
on the vaguest pretense
that you could call me on the telephone.

and so I made my escape from the party
and I left you inspecting my note
but I have no doubt
that you won't figure it out
because there no sense in the stuff that I wrote.

b: I can show you heaven!
g: you're a mess.
b: I think I see a seven?
g: lucky guess!
b: you could be my wife!
g: but I won't.
b: I think I see a five?
g: no you don't!
