The Girl You Pretended to Be - Fastball

A little too smooth

You made all the right moves

But you didn’t fool me

I knew anyway

The plot in your head

To stay one step ahead

Of the girl you pretended to be

How you got in her body

While she was away

I’ll admit that part remains a mystery

There’s one thing I know

It’s I’d much rather go

With the girl you pretended to be

Down to the detail you had her spot on

You thought you knew how the game could be won

I thought I heard a variation in tone

You said the wrong thing and your cover was blown

You’re just as pretty

And you’ve got the skills

I know it’s a difficult role to play

You may be smart

But you don’t have a heart

Like the girl you pretended to be

Down to the detail you had her spot on

You thought you knew how the game could be won

I thought I heard a variation in tone

You said the wrong thing and your cover was blown

Now that I’ve caught you

You’ve nothing to say

I’ve proven your guilt undeniably

If there’s one thing I’ll say

It’s I’d much rather stay

With the girl you pretended to be

All I’m asking from you

Could you please turn into

The girl you pretended to be?
