What's The Drawback Lyrics
She's quite pretty, she plays the guitar,
She's got the talent but she doesn't wanna be a star.
Content to listen to the radio,
She likes the magic chords, in the ELO. ELO.
She's not shy, you can tell by her smile,
She's not the type to imitate somebody else's style.
She's a rebel and a rocker for sure,
And I can't stop thinking, what's wrong with that?
She's so dedicated,
And my heart keeps telling me 'don't let it show',
Don't try to be so sophisticated,
What's the drawback?
I keep wondering.
I know there must be something.
What's the drawback?
I keep wondering,
But I can't think of one thing.
She's stopping traffic, and moving through time,
She's like a 45 record in the back of my mind,
I see potential in her serious looks,
But I can't stop thinking, what's right with that?
She's so uncomplicated,
But my heart keeps telling me 'don't let it show',
Try not to be so jaded,
What's the drawback?
I keep wondering.
I know there must be something.
What's the drawback?
I keep wondering,
Cause I can't think, I can't think of one thing.
And I can't stop thinking, what's wrong with that?
She's so dedicated,
But my heart keeps telling me, 'don't let it show'.
Try not to be so sophisticated.
Can't think of one thing.
Can't think of one thing.
She's got the talent but she doesn't wanna be a star.
Content to listen to the radio,
She likes the magic chords, in the ELO. ELO.
She's not the type to imitate somebody else's style.
She's a rebel and a rocker for sure,
And I can't stop thinking, what's wrong with that?
She's so dedicated,
And my heart keeps telling me 'don't let it show',
Don't try to be so sophisticated,
I keep wondering.
I know there must be something.
What's the drawback?
I keep wondering,
But I can't think of one thing.
She's like a 45 record in the back of my mind,
I see potential in her serious looks,
But I can't stop thinking, what's right with that?
She's so uncomplicated,
But my heart keeps telling me 'don't let it show',
Try not to be so jaded,
I keep wondering.
I know there must be something.
What's the drawback?
I keep wondering,
Cause I can't think, I can't think of one thing.
She's so dedicated,
But my heart keeps telling me, 'don't let it show'.
Try not to be so sophisticated.
Can't think of one thing.

After listening to this song, it stands out to me as a song about a guy who has met this girl who seems absolutely perfect for him. The song describes him thinking there is no way she's this perfect and that there has to be some kind of drawback. He's looking for something wrong in her but he "can't think of one thing". That's my quick interpretation, you all might have something different, but oh well.
