Amateur
Aimee Mann
Letra

I'm told the case is now closed
So I can come to my senses
But when the question is posed I'll have this meager defense

I was hoping that you'd know better than that I was hoping
But you're an amateur
I was hoping that you'd know better
But I've been wrong before
Despite conclusions I drew, there was a chance you'd surprise me
And you'd be better than you
'Cause I'd have left otherwise

I was hoping that you'd know better than that I was hoping
But you're an amateur
I was hoping that you'd know better
But I've been wrong before
So I wasn't thinking clearly
So you didn't think at all I thought that was protocol

I was hoping that you'd know better than that I was hoping
But you're an amateur
I was hoping that you'd know better
But I've been wrong before
I was hoping that I was hoping but you're an amateur
I was hoping that you'd know better
But I've been wrong before
