System-system-ystem-ystem, System-system-ystem-ystem
System-system-ystem-ystem, System-system-ystem-ystem
Syste-e-e-e-em
In the corner-er, I'm just thinki-ing, what's a girl supposed to do-oo-oo
I love you baby-y from a dista-ance, I've been watching you-ou-ou-ou
All of my friends use a cute li-ine, seems to work everyti-ime
But I can't seem to-oo get through to you-ou, dreamin's all I do
Everybody's got a system, syste-em
Why's mine not workin' on you
If I could make you liste-e-en, liste-en
What've I got to do to prove my love for you
When I see you, wish I could hold you, but I just don't know what to do-oo
Everybody seems to know the ways of gettin' through-ough-ough-ough
I keep my eyes on what you're doin', even smile or stare at you-ou
Why don't you see me in the corner, I'm so in love with you...
Everybody's got a system, syste-em
Why's mine not workin' on you
If I could make you liste-e-en, liste-en
What've I got to do to prove my love for you
Everybody's got a system, syste-em
Why's mine not workin' on you
If I could make you liste-e-en, liste-en
What've I got to do to prove my love for you
Everybody (why-why) everybody, my love
Everybody (why-why) everybody, my love
In the corner-er I'm just thinking (I'm thinking)
What's a girl supposed to do-oo-oo (suppo-osed to do)
I love ya baby-y from a dista-ance (distance)
I've been watching you-ou-ou-ou
Everybody's got a system, syste-em
Why's mine not workin' on you
If I could make you liste-e-en, liste-en
What've I got to do to prove my love for you
Everybody's got a system, syste-em
Why's mine not workin' on you
If I could make you liste-e-en, liste-en
What've I got to do to prove my love for you
Everybody's got a system, (syste-e-em) syste-em
Why's mine not workin' on you
If I could make you liste-e-en, liste-en
