At first I told myself
I need my head inspected,
I notice little things
Same t-shirt and sunglasses,
Then it got weirder see
She cut her hair like me,
She bought a red guitar
Kept driving round in my car
I’m kissing her and she
She slams me against the wall
She crashed into a bus,
Chasing some super model
She’s analysed my smile,
She’s memorised my phonebook
She always wears my clothes,
Her favourite words are f* you
BRIDGE
She looks like, does like, sounds like me
She’s stealing my identity
And I’m begging you
CHORUS
Somebody notice me, somebody notice
I’m fading away here,
What have I gotta do to make you see
My girlfriend is a wannabe
And she wants to be me
I’m saying something wrong,
She’s out back playing soccer
She used to do ballet,
Now she’s a heavy smoker
She’s so obsessed with me,
That she stands up to pee
And now her stupid games,
Have started taking over
Don’t need no special help,
No need to see a doctor
I know your worried but,
Im telling you just watch her
Its like she’s cracked my code,
Knows things I've never spoke of
She wants sex all the time,
And still finds time to f*** off
BRIDGE
She looks like, does like, sounds like me
She’s stealing my identity
And I’m begging you
CHORUS
Somebody notice me, somebody notice
I’m fading away here,
What have I gotta do to make you see
My girlfriend is a wannabe
And she wants to be me
I’m not joking
She won’t stop provoking me
I’m going under
What have I gotta do to make you see
My girlfriend is a wannabe
And she wants to be me
I’m in the loony bin,
Wearing a pale pink nightie
The nurse comes through the door,
And whispers so politely
“Your boyfriend’s here to see you,
Look pretty take a bath
I love his skater band,
Can I get his autograph?”
BRIDGE
She looks like, does like, sounds like me
She’s stealing my identity
And I’m begging you
CHORUS
Somebody notice me, somebody notice
I’m fading away here,
What have I gotta do to make you see
My girlfriend is a wannabe
And she wants to be me
I’m not joking
She won’t stop provoking me
I’m going under
What have I gotta do to make you see
My girlfriend is a wannabe
And she wants to be me
