UNSW CSE Revue - 500 Yards ("I'm Gonna Be" parody)

This song is an ode to the inner stalker in every shy male geek. On a side note, I would also like to dedicate it (with apologies) to every girl I've ever inadvertently creeped out trying too hard being nice to! = P

Cheers,
Lau

Written by Andrew Lau and Liam Brennan
Based on "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)" by the Proclaimers

Performed by Lachlan Drummond, Som Guan, Matt Herrmann, David Vallance and Matt Lee.

Lyrics:

When you wake up, well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who wakes up next you
When you go out, well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's taping all your moves
And if you pass out, well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who spiked your Malibu
And if there's breathing, heavy breathing on the phone
It's gonna be the man who's lusting over you.

But I would breach 500 yards
And I would make 500 calls
But I can't cause this damn A.V.O.
Has got me strung up by the balls

When you're working, well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's trying on your shoes.
And when you come home, well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's hiding in your room
And I know that, (and I know that), someone's going out with you
I've got your email and the photographic proof.
And at your wedding, well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's screaming out "I do"

But I would breach 500 yards
And I would break 500 laws
Just to be the man who has a thousand
Cameras aimed at your front door

Surrender (surrender)
Surrender (surrender)
To the love that I know you will have for me
Surrender (surrender)
Surrender (surrender)
Or you'll end up like the last girl who ditched me

When you're online, well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who hacked your ICQ
And when I'm dreaming, well I know I'm gonna dream
I'm gonna dream about the times I've seen you nude
When I break in (when I break in) to your basement secretly
I'm gonna be the one who steals your panties too
And when I'm lonely, well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's jerking off to you

But I would breach 500 yards
And I would breach terms of parole
In the hope that you will say you love me
When I show up at your door

Surrender (surrender)
Surrender (surrender)
To the love that I know you will have for me
Surrender (surrender)
Surrender (surrender)
Or you'll end up like the last girl who ditched me
