Hits-the B-sides Lyrics - 1993
"look at the bargains over here, ladies..."
If i was your girlfriend
Would u remember 2 tell me all the things u forgot
When i was your man?
Hey, when i was your man
If i was your best friend
Would u let me take care of u and do all the things
That only a best friend can
Only best friends can
If i was your girlfriend
If i was your girlfriend
If i was your girlfriend
Would u let me dress u
I mean, help u pick out your clothes
Before we go out
Not that you're helpless
But sometimes, sometimes
Those are the things that bein' in love's about
If i was your one and only friend
Would u run 2 me if somebody hurt u
Even if that somebody was me?
Sometimes i trip on how happy we could be
Please
If i was your girlfriend
If i was your girlfriend
Would u let me wash your hair
Could i make u breakfast sometime
Or then, could we just hang out, i mean
Could we go 2 a movie and cry together
Cuz 2 me baby that would be so fine
If i was your girlfriend
Baby can i dress u
I mean, help u pick out your clothes
Before we go out
(if i was your girlfriend)
Listen girl, i ain't sayin you're helpless
But sometimes, sometimes
Those are the things that bein' in love's about (sugar)
Sugar do u know what i'm saying 2 u this evening? (sugar)
Maybe u think i'm being
A little self-centered (if i was your girlfriend)
But i, i said i want 2 be (sugar)
All of the things u are 2 me (sugar)
Surely, surely u can see (if i was your girlfriend)
{{title repeated in background}}
Is it really necessary 4 me 2 go out of the room
Just because u wanna undress?
I mean, we don't have 2 make children 2 make love
And then, we don't have 2 make love 2 have an orgasm
Your body's what i'm all about
Can i see u?
I'll show u
Why not?
U can think it's because i'm your friend i'll do it 4 u
Of course i'll undress in front of u!
And when i'm naked, what shall i do?
How can i make u see that it's cool?
Can't u just trust me?
If i was your girlfriend u could
Oh, yeah, i think so
Listen, 4 u naked i would dance a ballet
Would that get u off?
Then tell me what will!
If i was your girlfriend, would u tell me?
Would u let me see u naked then?
Would u let me give u a bath?
Would u let me tickle u so hard u'd laugh and laugh
And would u, would u let me kiss u there
You know down there where it counts
I'll do it so good i swear i'll drink every ounce
And then i'll hold u tight and hold u long
And together we'll stare into silence
And we'll try 2 imagine what it looks like
Yeah, we'll try 2 imagine what, what silence looks like
Yeah, we'll try 2 imagine what silence looks like
Yeah, we'll try...
