[Verse 1]
Cold and windy
Dark and stormy
Let me float your way
Please don't ignore me
What you girls really need's a soft, fuzzy man
(An ambient man)
A trick of the light to love you tonight
You don't understand, there's nothing quite like a soft, fuzzy man

Can't you see me?
Why can't you see me?
I'm all around, all cold and dreamy
What you girls really need's a soft, fuzzy man
(A wisp of smoke man)
To waft over you and cloud up your view
So show me your hands and wave them right through a soft, fuzzy man

[Chorus]
Melanie
What can the problem be?
Sweet Melanie
Why won't you go out with me?

[Verse 2]
I won't lie to you
I know he's just not right for you
And you can tell me if I'm off
But I see it on your face
When you say that he's the one that you want
And you'rе spending all your time
In this wrong situation
And anytime you want it to stop
[Pre-Chorus]
I know I can trеat you better than he can
And any girl like you deserves a gentleman
Tell me, why are we wasting time
On all your wasted cryin'
When you should be with me instead?
I know I can treat you better
Better than he can

[Chorus]
Melanie
What can the problem be?
Sweet Melanie
Why won't you go out with me?

[Bridge]
Although I have no arms to hold you in
A human passion burns within me
I need to feel like I exist
So please, baby, please, baby step into the mist

[Outro]
Don't be nervous
No, don't be nervous
I'm not like other guys
Who have a surface ('Cause I know I can treat you better than he can)
What you girls really need's a soft, fuzzy man
(An atmospheric man) A shimmering puff of indistinct love (And any girl like you deserves a gentleman)
What's better than the vague embrace of a soft, fuzzy man?
Who seeps through your thoughts (Oh, Melanie)
Who makes you see spots
Who blows through the air (What can the problem be?)
Who plays with your hair
I know it sounds crazy (Sweet Melanie)
But once you go hazy, you'll understand
I'm your soft, fuzzy man (Why won't you go out with me?)
