If You’re Too Shy (Let Me Know) Lyrics
If You’re Too Shy (Let Me Know) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I see her online
All the time
I’m trying not to stare down there
While she talks about her tough time
Girl of your dreams
You know what I mean
There’s something ’bout her stare that makes you nervous
And you say things that you don’t mean
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, I found a hotel, I called up the twins
It’s seven in the morning, so they won’t let me in
I need to get back, I’ve gotta see the girl on the screen
(And then I spoke to her and she said)
[Chorus]
“Maybe I would like you better if you took off your clothes
I’m not playing with you, baby, I think that you should give it a go”
She said, “Maybe I would like you better if you took off your clothes
I wanna see and stop thinking, if you’re too shy, then let me
Too shy, then let me know”
[Verse 2]
I’ve been wearing nothing every time I call you
And I’m starting to feel weird about it
Sometimes, it’s better if you think about
This time, I think I’m gonna drink through it
Then I see her online, and I don’t think that I should be calling
All the time, I just wanted a happy ending
And I pretend that I don’t care about her stare
While she’s giving me a tough time
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, I found a motel, it looked like the bins
I think there’d been a murder, so we couldn’t get in
I need to get back, I’ve gotta see the girl on the screen
[Chorus]
“Maybe I would like you better if you took off your clothes
I’m not playing with you, baby, I think that you should give it a go”
She said, “Maybe I would like you better if you took off your clothes
I wanna see and stop thinking, if you’re too shy, then let me
Too shy, then let me know (You’re too shy, then let me)
Well, if you’re too shy, then let me know (Too shy, then let me)
If you’re too shy, then let me go” (Oh, yeah)
[Bridge]
I see her online
All the time
[Chorus]
Well, she said, “Maybe I would like you better if you took off your clothes
I’m not playing with you, baby, I think that you should give it a go”
She said, “Maybe I would like you better if you took off your clothes
I wanna see and stop thinking, if you’re too shy, then let me
Too shy, then let me know”
