lyrics

Everybody's alone now, and I need a friend
(I think copy cat could do the job)
If you want to go out, or just want to pretend
(Tell me how to dress and what to say)
I wanna copy your style, I wanna copy your love
(Just a taste to keep me coming back)
You know, I've got this deep fear, babe, that I'm not good enough

I didn't mean to make you angry
I didn't mean to make you jealous
I know I probably sound crazy
Do you still want to do this?

State the terms and conditions before we begin
(Got to know just what is going on)
I need someone beside me, to look like my twin
(That's where copy cat can do the job!)
Put him in a trench coat, stack him up tall
(I think he is looking pretty good)
Oh, honey, you did it! I knew you could!

I didn't mean to make you angry
I didn't mean to make you jealous
I know I probably sound crazy
Do you still want to do this?

I didn't mean to make you angry
I didn't want to make you jealous
I know I probably sound crazy
Do you still want to do this?
