It's about a one night stand. We wanted to write about a cheetah printer that manufactured cheetahs, but ended up only putting in one line about cheetah print sheets.

lyrics

Verse 1
Pretty girls looking scantily clad
Is all I saw as I walked into a Japanese dive
I met one who wasn't half bad
I laughed as she asked me for a cigarette
I woke up at the 3 the next day, on a mattress
The sheets were dressed with cheetah print
The girl next too me didn't have much to say
I grabbed my jacket and hightailed it out of that place

Chorus
Here I am I’m all alone thoughts of you just fade away
I feel trapped inside this little white room held up with four white walls
Staring pointlessly at the phone, but I don’t think you’ll ever call

Verse 2
Its been 2 weeks since I last saw you
I must admit you’ve been stuck on my mind
I saw you on the street and my heart starts to race
As I feel absolutely terrified
So I walk up to you, and you just looked confused
As I tried to replay what had happened that night
Its just not gonna work out, and I can see that now
Were not meant to be, but that’s alright with me
