Overview

Anna: It's about dating and how harsh it is to be at the right place at the wrong time.

Tony: It's like, 'On paper, you're the one, but I can't get myself together.'

Anna: And that's so depressing.

—1995 interview with Anna Waronker and Tony Maxwell

Lyrics

So he said, "want to go to a movie?"
So she thinks, "what do I want to do?"
So he said, "I think you're pretty"
So she thinks, "I wish I liked you"

If I could draw a map
Of a boy that I would like,
Your resume would shine through
Like a bright green light

If I didn't feel so wrong,
if I didn't feel so wrong,
if I didn't feel so wrong
You'd be my Mr. Right

So he said, "I have something to ask you"
So she thinks, "this makes no sense"
So he said, "are you a teepee or a wigwam?"
So she thinks, "I'm just too tense"

If I could draw a map
Of a boy that I would like,
Your resume would shine through
Like a bright green light

If I didn't feel so wrong,
if I didn't feel so wrong,
if I didn't feel so wrong
You'd be my Mr. Right

If I didn't feel so wrong
You'd be my Mr. Right

If I didn't feel so wrong
You'd be my Mr. Right
