about

This is the sound of us paying homage to "I Fight Dragons," who cavort with Nintendos on stage. It's also the sound of a 15-year-old girl trying to get a 15-year-old boy to notice her. Relevant blog entry here: www.groovelily.com/2010/04/30/wc-demo-4-i-want-you-for-real/

lyrics

You got me distracted
you got me uptight
you got me obsessing 'bout you
every day and night

you brought your nintendo
I brought my guitar
I'm sitting right beside you
I'm so close and yet so far

maybe it's no big deal
but this is how I feel
in every game we play
well I own you babe
(but) now I'm afraid
that I want you for real

you don't check your radar
you don't look around
you go in with gunfire blazing
trying to mow me down

but I stay in the shadows
I don't go near the lights
I'm tracking every move you make,
I've got you in my sights

you say it ain't no big deal
but this is how I feel
in every game we play,
well I own you babe,
but now I'm afraid
that I want you for real,
I want you for real
I want you for real.......

You got me distracted
you got me uptight
you got me obsessing 'bout you
every day and night

put down your controller
turn off your t.v.
I'm trying to tell you something, so
shut up and look at me
