She was in the room when I came, she walked up and told me her name
She wasn’t my type, but I took a second look
I still wonder how it came to be
She’s not the kind of woman that interests me
But nevertheless, I wrote her number in my book
What it is I can’t explain, she brings me pleasure but she causes me pain
I try to resist her but I can’t abstain, she has a certain something
The attraction is a mystery, it’s really got a hold on me
I don’t exactly like her, she can be a little mean
She’s not friendly, she’s not kind, not well-behaved but I don’t mind
I always forgive her, every time she makes a scene
What it is I can’t explain, I come running when she calls my name
I should leave her but I can’t refrain, she has a certain something
I’ve tried to stay away but I always lose my resolve
I can’t decide if it’s ecstasy or a problem that I need to solve
I thought that it was just a fling
But when I’m with her I hear angels sing
It’ll never be a casual thing
She has a certain something
Now what in the hell can I do
She puts a spell on me, she’d put a spell on you
If you knew her she would haunt you too, she has a certain something
And I don’t know what to do, she has a certain something
