If there's a girl who's ever looked better   Well, you ain't never met her   You see her walking 'round carrying her records   She's into The Upsetters      And you don't know her name   But you've seen her around   But you know where she's from   Because you live in her town   You're asking mutual friends if you can be introduced   But the girl's distracted and it's just no use      You're taking looks at her over your shoulder   She doesn't even notice   She can't concentrate, she can't focus   Your situation's hopeless      There's always something more interesting catching her eye   She's not the type to let opportunities pass her by   You think she's playing it cool, but that just isn't true   The girl's distracted and she don't see you!      You call her up on the phone but she just doesn't care   She'll be telling her mom to tell you she's not there   I know you wanted to get a little time all alone   But the girl's distracted and she's just not home.
