jane siberry – this girl i know lyrics

all i said was–why are you so fat
if you don’t want to be and all that
no big deal–i just want to know

mind your own business–no i don’t mean you
it’s the table over there
i think they think i’m being rude
i’m not being rude–i just want to know

then she said–you know
i’m gonna lose a lot of weight someday
i’ll get some new clothes
i’ll change my style
i’ll cut my hair
i’ll meet a lot of men
i’ll have a lot of dates
i’ll discriminate
i’ll get myself together

and then i said–why not do it now
if you really want to be and all that

no big deal–i just want to know

mind your own business–no i don’t mean you
it’s the table over there
i think they think i’m being rude
i’m not being rude–i just want to know

then she said…

and then she leaned over to me
and she said–this is gonna sound weird
but the reason i don’t do it now
is i have this crazy fear
that i wouldn’t know what to do
if a man thought i was… s-xy or something

and then she leaned back
and i leaned back
and we didn’t say very much after that
