This song may sound sad,
but to me it's face paced, upbeat, ironic and sarcastic. One for all those nerds
out there who dream of a perfect life but can't get it because the EVIL CORPORATE
DATING MACHINE STRIKES AGAIN!!!!
Ahem. Enough of that...
Dateless Wonder
(fade in)
(drum beat kick in)
Walking down the block
New shoes on
Feeling so good cuz i'm looking so fly
Dateless wonder why
Hanging on the bus stop
Leaning on the wall
I feel really good and I stand tall
Dateless wonder why (echo...)
I stand tall
Feel good about the things
That I can see you and bring
Until that guy comes along with a date
I think I found my fate
I'm a dateless
(filler, build up)
a dateless wonder
Yes, let me shake your hand
Its the closest thing i'll get to a date
Because i'm depressed
I am worried
And I am sad
Yes, I am a dateless wonder
(beat)
A dateless wonder is me!
(filler)
I'm the guy who sits in
the corner
I'm the guy who never dared
To get the girl
I'm the one who sat and stared
At yours
I don't like confrontation
I'm not to fond of pressure either
I don't like the way I am today
Just want to get past the storms
And into fair weather, yeah...
I'm not one for action
I like to sit indoors in traction
While I watch the world go by
The world has a date
I'm a dateless
(filler, build up)
a dateless wonder
Yes, let me shake your hand
Its the closest thing i'll get to a date
Because i'm depressed
I am worried
And I am sad
Yes, I am a dateless wonder
(beat)
A dateless wonder is me!
(filler)
You know it's not easy
Preaching to the converted
It's not easy when you don't have a date
And when you do they turn up late
Or not at all
(phone voice laugh)
Just want the world to open
up
And swallow me whole...
I'm a dateless
(filler, build up)
a dateless wonder
Yes, let me shake your hand
Its the closest thing i'll get to a date
Because i'm depressed
I am worried
And I am sad
Yes, I am a dateless wonder
(beat)
A dateless wonder is me!
Can't you see
It's so obvious
But your so obnoxious
It passes you by
You come on down
You see the clown
By the side
Do me a favour
Go on by
walk on by
With your date
Just leave one for me, please?
(laugh)
only joking
I'm just kidding
You get that a lot with me...
I'm a dateless
(filler, build up)
a dateless wonder
Yes, let me shake your hand
Its the closest thing i'll get to a date
Because i'm depressed
I am worried
And I am sad
Yes, I am a dateless wonder
(beat)
(build up)
Dateless!..
(wierd echoes)
