She Gets In the Way

She gets in the way 
 She's so tuned in 
I want to throw a radio at her head
I know that might sound violent but still 
She ruins my plans 
She thinks she knows you best
She's in between buddy and possible next
But she can't be next
Cause i'm not through
I have things on my mind 
Things she'll never do
I can never get you alone
Not that I try
Cause she stalks 
Stalks you even more than 
the guy she claims to like
You call her for every detail 
She calls you with every secret 
Secrets that were supposed to be kept secret
Things that don't even matter much
Yet she finds the time to ring your phone
What kind of life does she have 
That she won't leave you alone? 
Sometimes I yell about it not to your face
Cause clueless as you are 
I think you know it bothers me 
I can't seem to understand how she could take my place
Not as a girl friend but merely a friend 
She vaccuming all the empty spaces
Leaving me no way to enter again 
Yet she says she's not after you 
but really I don't believe her 
She says she's trying to help me out
Helping would be leaving the country
Or throwing yourself off a bridge and sinking 
     No really I'm not that mean 
        I just wish she understood how in the way she was 
               But she doesn't get it 
                Sometimes I wish she understood
                    But like you she's just clueless
