For You Songtext
von TV Girl

(Dating courtesy)
(A girl is right to assume her date will perform little acts of courtesy, which are his privilege)
For you (if you are smart, you will allow him to open doors and hold chairs)
(Don′t barge on ahead like a baby elephant) for you
(You'll get attention, all right, but it won′t be favorable)
For you (it is correct to pause and let him know you expect him to act like a gentleman)
(He'll love it and think you're a lady) for you
(And in return, it will flatter his masculine ego)
For you (for you)

For you, I wonder if
For you, I wonder if
For you, I wonder if
For you, for you (for you)

Excuse me for a second, while I bang my head against this wall
And I′m starting to suspect you don′t intend to do what you say at all
Forgive your loyal sycophant for leaving lipstick stains upon your shoes


For you
I wasted all my favorite melodies (for you)
And watched best friends turn to enemies (for you)
You heard I like the bad girls, baby, maybe that's true
For everybody else except

For you (for you)
For you, I wonder if

For you (for you)
For you, I wonder if

For you (for you)
For you, I wonder if

For you (for you)
For you, I wonder if

Excuse me, miss, but isn′t this your naked body in my bed?
And how come it always felt like you were taking something
Away when you were giving head?
It's a promise and a threat to say the "F" word, so be careful who you screw

For you
I used up all this latent energy (for you)
Tell me, was everything you ever said to me just for you?
Still thinking there was something in a girl′s underwear that could change me
Like I was still in middle school, like a fool

For you (for you)
For you, I wonder if


For you (for you)
For you, I wonder if

For you, (for you)
For you, I wonder if

For you (for you)
For you, I wonder if, for you

Lonesome poets throwing glitter in their hair
(For you), doing somersaults and exploding in mid-air
(For you), but you don't ever notice, or you don′t care, or both
And when they take off all their clothes, they're still not close enough

For you (for you)
For you, I wonder if

For you (for you)
For you, I wonder if

For you (for you)
For you, I wonder if

For you (for you)
For you, I wonder if
