I know you work across the street
in the indie record store
I'm thinking someday that we'll meet
I'm thinking we'll do something more
I hide behind my magazine
then I see you walk on by
I'm not ready to be seen
I'll just sit right here and spy

boys will come and boys will go
tell me something I don't know
I've seen you here before
I want to see you more and more
you get inside my head
I want you in my bed
from far away I check you out
can't let you see me

I'm on a stakeout
I'm on a stakeout
I'm on a stakeout
I'm on a stakeout

I've got a plan in mind for you
I'm waiting till the time is right
I know that you'll like what I do
no need to put up a fight
watching you from far away
you look so sweet and clueless
soon I'll move in on my prey
it's time for me to do this

watching and waiting
the feeling is elating
biding my time
yeah, I know that you'll soon be mine
soon be mine

can't let you see me
can't let you see me
can't let you see me
I'm on a stakeout
I'm on a stakeout
I'm on a stakeout
I'm on a stakeout

boys will come and boys will go
tell me something I don't know
I've seen you here before
I want to see you more and...
more you get inside my head
I want you in my bed
from far away I check you out
can't let you see me
can't let you see me
yeah, I know that you'll soon be mine
