[English]

My girlfriend's got a boyfriend, funny

He doesn't make a dime all day

And all her girlfriends' boyfriends make money

What more can I say?

It's true

He never made it through a day of school

The only thing he studied was you

He knows your body better than you do

Maybe I'm your Mister Right

Baby, maybe I'm the wrong you like

Maybe I'm a shot in the dark

And you're the morning light (whoa)

Maybe this is sad but true

Baby, maybe you've got nothing to lose

You could be the best of me

When I'm the worst for you

My girlfriend's got a boyfriend

Running to catch the bus to meet

To meet up with the boyfriend's girlfriend

Who's stunning, she's such a sight to see

It's true

The moment he laid eyes on you he knew

The only wish he wanted came true

He knows he's lucky that he met someone like you

Maybe I'm your Mister Right

Baby, maybe I'm the wrong you like

Maybe I'm a shot in the dark

And you're the morning light (whoa)

Maybe this is sad but true

Baby, maybe you've got nothing to lose

You could be the best of me

When I'm the worst for you

Can always change your mind

And you can't change mine

(No, you can't change mine)

Maybe I'm your Mister Right

Baby, maybe I'm the wrong you like

Maybe I'm a shot in the dark

And you're the morning light (whoa)

Maybe this is sad but true

Baby, maybe you've got nothing to lose

You could be the best of me

When I'm the worst for you

I'm the worst for you
