Chad, our drummer, said this phrase at practice so I turned it into a song. Stalker songs are all the rage if you haven't heard.

**Edit** Turns out this is the title of an album by some group or other. Who knew?

I see you walking down the street
Just swinging your hips and lookin' sweet
With a toss of your head and a wink of your eye
I hope I can be your guy

You turn toward me and start to smile
Then you turn away for a while
You won't give me the time of day
But I think I can hear you say
"Take off your pants and jacket."

I see you walk into the club
You look at me like I'm a scrub
You're sitting by the bar all alone
And I just want to take you home

Chorus

Through your window I see you wake up
And I see you as you fill your coffee cup
I see you but you don't notice me
You're everything I want you to be

Chorus

I see you as you go to sleep
As you toss and turn and start counting sheep
You don't know it but I'm right there
Standing in my underwear

This one would sound great with a full band treatment, heavy rocking guitars rocking it out.  Great song.

You know, I hadn't realized that stalker songs were in, but now
I can certainly see why! I hope that you play this numer with your

jam here for us poor [yearning to hear this song done electic] guys.

fun song, in a kinda stalker-fun sort of way :)

I really like that higher melodic sweep you have in the title (payoff) line 'take off your pants and jacket').. and Im wondering if the song would be even more effective if you didnt sing that whole chorus/verse thing where it appears (all four lines) every time... or maybe had different words in there in the 'chorus' until the end line 'take off your..' which would always be the same. Just a thought :)

    fun stuff!

Oooh, a little stalker action!!

You done good here, bro - Maintaining the pace even into the halfway point. Keep going!!

Cool 60's sounding solo at the end too.

Love it!
