Chris Thile - The Wrong Idea Lyrics

I don't want to introduce you to my friends, 'cause I think they'll get the wrong idea.

You're so fetching in that dress - They'll think we have messed around

And though I'll tell them otherwise, I was gone all night with you.

What most people do will be running through their heads.

They don't need to see that I met a pretty girl last night.


I'm 19, and I've kissed 2 girls that's all.

You're 16, and you're one... Is that against the law?


I never thought that it would come to this.

My reputation will be missed

By all the dads who introduce me to their girls saying

"I have got a great idea! You're so different from most guys."

Now that's just a wishful like, because I'm not different anymore-

A revolving door you came through.

And though you're first - even if you're last - it won't change

That I'm not me, 'cause I met a pretty girl last night.


I guess I have to introduce you to my friends, but I know they'll get the wrong idea.
